According to "Irish Records, Sources for <br>Family & Local History" by James Ryan mentions <br>a Catholic parish called Loughlynn and a village<br>called Loughlinn in the Civil parish of Tibohine,<br>in the Barony of Frenchpark. The earliest birth <br>and marriage records are dated April 1817.<br>The custom back then was that a woman was <br>married in her home parish not in the husband's<br>parish.<br> The address listed in the 1988 edition of the<br>bookis Rev. Peter Feely, PP, Loughlynn, Castlerea,<br>Co. Roscommon. You might want to address any <br>requests to the parish priest for Loughlynn<br>just in case Rev Feely has been reassigned so<br>your letter won't follow him to another assignment.<br>Hope this helps.<p><br> peter greene<br> De Nobis Fabula Narratur<br> (Their Story is Our Story)<p>
