Member Since: March 2008 Posts: 1,056 Send Message	I don't know if this is the father, Ferris is a common enough name here. There no site that has complete BMD's for Ireland familysearch.org http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.ancestry.com/~rosdavies/ http://www.proni.gov.uk/index/search_the_archives.htm http://www.census.nationalarchives.ie/ http://www.lennonwylie.co.uk/ site you can search for free, but to view the full record you have to pay emeraldancestors.com ancestryireland.com rootsireland.ie [has the same information as ancestryireland but you can narrow your search by district/parish http://www.historyfromheadstones.com/

	Thanks Maura - please don't think me rude but if you can search for more of the family it is highly appreciated. Wow! I'm so glad I got to the PRONI now! Thank you again for all of your help so far! Peter

	The GRO(I) index thru 1958 (excl N. Ireland post-partition) is available at: https://familysearch.org/search/collection/list#page=1®ion=UNITED_KINGDOM_IRELAND One can purchase certs (or cheaper still, the uncertified images of the rego) via: http://www.groireland.ie/

Member Since: March 2008 Posts: 1,056 Send Message	Peter, I've given you the names of site that you can search yourself, its more fun doing your own research.

	No I agree Maura but I am just producing little results and I find it quite difficult. But thank you. Your help is greatly appreciated.
