Hello there,

it is my understanding that Askamore is part of the Kilrush parish so I was wondering could someone tell me please how I can get to see the Baptism and marriage records for Askamore church from 1880 onwards.  I know my ancestors were married and baptised there but the relevant Kilrush records are not available on the NLI site.  They stop at 1880 and I have a marriage to find in 1885 and baptisms from 1887 to 1908 to find.  I am hoping that someone will be able to tell me if the records are accessible on microfilm or similar at an archive centre somewhere in Wexford as I'm intending to visit in the summer.

Help with locating these records will be VERY much appreciated.  Thank you loads in advance -  and if anyone has any information re the parents or families of the named people below, that would be WONDERFUL!  :-)

Andrew Browne   and   Julia Butler

I have the civil marriage record of my gt grandparents, Andrew Browne and Julia Butler, marrying at Askamore Church 17th Sept 1885. They then go on to have around 8 children all baptised at Askamore - so I really DO want to seen these records.  I know Andrew and Julia's fathers names are James Browne and William Butler (both farmers) but I don't know their mothers names as I've also not been able to find their baptisms.   If anyone could tell me anything about these Browne and Butler families I'd be SO grateful.

Thank you loads.

Kind regards

Clare Hanlon
