National Library of Ireland releases RC parish registers [View all]

Can't wait to dive into this

http://www.irishgenealogynews.com/2015/07/national-library-of-ireland-releases-rc.html

Today is a landmark day for Irish genealogy. The National Library of Ireland has released its entire collection of Roman Catholic parish registers in image format on a dedicated section of its website. And it's simply wonderful!

The registers span the 1740s to the 1880s; most start in the 1820s and a sizeable number even as late as the 1860s.
