A New Genealogical  Atlas of Ireland
2nd Edition
Brian Mitchell
Softbound    volume  totaling
175
pages. Book  is in new condition.  Just what you need  for genealogy research. Per the publisher;
Since its publication in 1986,
A New Genealogical Atlas of Ireland
has established itself as a key      resource in Irish genealogical research. Now, with the addition of maps      detailing the location of Roman Catholic parishes in all thirty-two counties      of Ireland and Presbyterian congregations in the nine counties of Northern      Ireland, this new 2nd Edition moves the book to the forefront of Irish      genealogical research. Also, for the first time ever, this one volume      contains a complete geographical picture of the three major religious      denominations in Ireland during the middle years of the 19th century.
And just what is the importance of this? Civil      registration for everyone in Ireland didn't begin until 1864. Prior to that,      the only records of births, marriages, and deaths were found in local      parishes. Therefore, the first step in any Irish research for the first half      of the 19th century and before should be to identify the religious      denomination and parish of your ancestor. Although any of the Townland      Indexes from 1851, 1871, or 1901 will show the location of each civil parish      (which generally corresponds to the boundaries of the Church of Ireland      parishes), it has been much more difficult to uncover the corresponding      Catholic parish or Presbyterian congregation. Until now!
This new 2nd Edition is not only invaluable for tracing      your pre-1864 ancestors in church records but also for locating your      post-1864 ancestor in civil records, for this volume provides descriptions      and maps of the parochial and civil administrative divisions to which all      major Irish record sources are linked. To aid the researcher in identifying      the precise location of the administrative divisions, and thus their      jurisdiction, Mr. Mitchell has drawn at least four, and sometimes five, maps      for every county. The first county map depicts the civil/Church of Ireland      parishes; the second shows the baronies and Church of Ireland dioceses; the      third map illustrates the poor law unions and the parishes included within      the probate districts serving that county; the fourth plots Roman Catholic      parishes and dioceses; and the fifth locates Presbyterian congregations for      the nine counties of Northern Ireland. Three maps of Ireland are also      included to show the area covered by each county, diocese, and probate      district. In addition, the book describes all of the major record sources of      Ireland.
These maps provide the clues to the Irish origins of      millions of Americans, making this atlas indispensable for tracing ancestors      in Ireland!
