Birth registration in Ireland (including Northern Ireland) began in 1864.  The indexes,  you find on this site, are the 1st step of a 2 step process in finding a birth record registered in Ireland.  The Index will give you a full name, the registration district where the birth was registered and then the volume and page number where you can locate the record.

All of the 1864 Index is being transcribed and going online as a project led by the Ireland GenWeb Project.  If you would like to help, .

The following people helped transcribe the T's:  Mary Devlin, Diane Culhane, Margaret Minoughan, Kelly Ann Binari, Patricia McGill, Jan MacMillan, Jim Buckley, Bob McConihe and Pat Connors

NOTE:  The Index is being transcribed from the Family History Film #0101041.  While the film is in fairly good condition, there are pages that are very light so there may be some mistakes in transcription.  Some numbers are hard to define, like 1 and 4.  You will find ? when we have had a problem deciding exactly what was typed.  Therefore, you should refer back to the film, if you think you found a record you would like to see before ordering the record or checking out the record's film.
NOTE 2:  The Ts were extremely hard to transcribe due to the condition of the film.  First, the printing was very light and hard to read and some pages were blurry.  Therefore, you will find a bunch of ??.  It is recommended highly that if you think you found a name you would like to check the record on, first go to the Family History Library website and check the entry and then if you are sure of the volume, check all pages to find the entry you are interested in.
