Just a note...
When I was in Sligo, the locals told me the cemetery/church ruins at
Taunagh, Riverstown, was originally RC. Somewhere around famine time it was
"taken over" by the CI. The CI added an entry and a plaque to their
minister there, but inside the older part was a holy water fountain carved
into the rock wall. That tells you that it was originally RC! There were
both RCatholic and CI buried there, but in different areas. I encountered
the same thing in Co. Sligo at Inver.

I guess the message is, "Don't pass over records because they are listed
under a different church denomination."

Read Genham's fantastic bible on Irish Research. It is there among the
extensive listings of available records.

He does list all Parishes of RC religion and Dromtarrif is not listed.

Perhaps saying it is a bible is a bit of a stretch but it is certainly up
there with some of the better resources and it has helped me tremendously
over the years.

I will point out though that I saw a Church in Rosscarbery listed on line as
a RC Church. When I went there, it was actually a C of I Parish. I believe
this is the case with one of the Churches in Cork City as well. Was RC Is
now actually C of I.
