Prior to that they deal with Saorstát Éireann from 1923-1948, otherwise known as the Irish Free State.<br /><br />Hope that helps.Chris Patonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05073425769475523109noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-434701420960162731.post-81007153270109624482012-03-16T14:31:48.944+00:002012-03-16T14:31:48.944+00:00Oh give over.

Just wondering Chris, why do you call it Southern Irish? It's called the Republic of Ireland, not Southern Ireland.<br /><br />Ashling.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04405247165080767797noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-434701420960162731.post-36753339407395153612012-03-16T14:21:26.941+00:002012-03-16T14:21:26.941+00:00The death indexes are online at FamilySearch and A...The death indexes are online at FamilySearch and Ancestry.co.uk, which can narrow it. Apparently some of the records are name indexed on the catalogue for a small number of years (see Claire's post), but I haven't bothered trying that yet. Really hate the catalogue, so have decided just to save all the individual files as PDFs and have them all to hand, as I would the Scottish equivalents at the Mitchell!<br /><br />ChrisChris Patonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05073425769475523109noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-434701420960162731.post-67050566609424205042012-03-16T14:16:55.942+00:002012-03-16T14:16:55.942+00:00Thanks for the help, Chris.

Great to have someone else go through this pain first. <br /><br />Is there anywhere we can search by surname do you know, or do we have to go through each year at a time? My Irish lot were mostly in London at that time, but it would be nice to have a look for any relatives.Rosemary Morganhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14415524272755182489noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-434701420960162731.post-3102743452271107092012-03-16T12:30:06.330+00:002012-03-16T12:30:06.330+00:00I actually called NAI and talked through how to do...I actually called NAI and talked through how to do it with someone there, I think they're as perplexed as everyone else! lol Thanks for the nod though - but they desperately need to put a user guide online!<br /><br />Off to see if my wife's Kilkenny and Tipp lot are there.
