Hi Patricia:
I research the Irish Family History Foundation's database. It contains 12,000,000 surviving rcds for abt 65% of Irish counties. Rcds are increasingly sparse B4 1840, rare B4 1800.
Note 1 - Without a KNOWN county, the chance of an ancestor's rcds NOT being in this database is AT LEAST 35%.
Note 2 - Only 1/2 of Co. Cork's rcds are in this database.
Note 3 - The RC church kept control over most parish rcds from Tipperary (north). These are ONLY available thru the Tipperary Family History Research center at a substantial fee (regardless of outcome).
For Sarah Elizabeth Holland B 1867 (exact), Co. Cork, with a father forenamed Tho(mas), I found 1 rcd, Mallow CI parish.
For Jos(eph) Holland B 1868 ditto, I found 0 rcds.
For Henry Holland B 1868 ditto, ditto.
For Rich(ard) Holland B 1870 ditto, ditto.
For Tho(mas) Holland B 1871 ditto, ditto.
For Elizab(eth) Holland B 1874 ditto, I found 1 rcd, Mallow CI parish.
For Tho(mas) Holland M 1866 +/- 1 yr in Co. Cork, I found 0 rcds. Note - Clonakilty is in west Cork. Rcds for this area haven't been transcribed yet. Suggest you wait until they are.
For Eliza Bullen B 1837 +/- 2 yrs, Co. Cork, with the father's forename unknown, I found 0 rcds. Note - Ardacrow is a townland in the parish of Rathclarin. Rathclarin isn't in the current database. Ditto above.
Google the Foundation's name to lead you to this database. Register, opt to be notified as rcds are added and browse. Pls post your search results to my genforum msg.
Hope this helps.
