from DGS member, Mike Dalton of Oregon
The following is a listing of Roman Catholic Irish people of marriageable age whose passage was likely paid for by their landlords. Because of dire conditions in famine affected areas many people went to towns in search of relief. Grffiths Valuaton lists most of these locales or townships. The Ship arrivals read like mini genealogies with more than one family member involved.

Index 1921-1943 (currently up to 1920 on CD, but up to 1930 on microfiche)
The Early Church Records will be digitized copies of the pages of the Registers for Burials, Marriages and Baptisms. When the Victorian Registry was set up by an Act of Parliament in 1843 it "requested" from all Parishes copies of their registers. Where an actual date of birth, death or marriage (as set down in the Act) was listed in the Parish registers the event was indexed and the register page of the event was added to the Registry set of certificates. A number
of parish records only had dates of baptism and burial and so could not
be used under the Act. These copies have sat in the Registry. The Registry
has digitised them, indexed them and will provide both index and digitized
copies on one, perhaps 2 CD's. They will be two good additions to the
Indexes available to family historians." The CD's will be a bit
pricey but the information contained in each record is quite detailed.

The following extractions were made by DGS member Rodney Dalton of Utah from the files of the Public Record Office. Life in 17th and 18th Century England had its ups and downs for our Dalton ancestors but perhaps no different than the population as a whole.
