John Carr came to Mayobridge in June 1907 and ministered there until 1925. His legacy is still fondly noted to this day in Mayobridge. Memories abound of his loving care of the people. He was endowed with an unaffected simplicity and unfailing good humour. He travelled round the Parish in horseback, when visiting, or attending the sick. He was born in Hilltown in the Parish of Clonduff. He studied at Maynooth and was ordained there by the Archbishop of Dublin, Dr.Walsh on the 21st June 1901.

He then went to live in Belfast and acted as Chaplain to a Convent for some years. He died in St. John of Gods Nursing Home Newry on the 14th May 1974 and is buried in Dromore Reverend Fr Pat McCartan The Revd Fr. Pat McCartan came to Mayobridge in 1933 and served there until 1941. He was a keen sportsman and gave the Crows around the Church and Convent grounds a hard time, using his .22 rifle to good effect. Entertainment in the Parochial Hall flourished during his Curacy in Mayobridge. He installed a full sized billiard table in the Parochial Hall which created considerable interest in all the district and rented a field convenient to the school from Joe Garvey, in which the schoolboy's could practice and polish their skills at Gaelic football. As a direct result of this facility, a School-boys Under-14 team was entered in a School Football competition for the Ashbourne Cup. which Mayobridge won, defeating the Abbey Newry and the C.B.S. Downpatrick. Mayobridge P.S. was the first name inscribed on that shield. Fr. Pat was born in Workington, England but received his education at St. John's College, Waterford when he was ordained in Waterford Cathedral by Dr. Hackett, CSSR, who was Bishop of Waterford and Lismore. He was serving as a Curate in Cushendun in the Down & Connor Diocese during 1917/18 and in Glenavy from 1918 until 1919 when he was recalled as Curate to Drumgath in February 1919 until November 1922 when he was transferred to Dromara. He moved to Tullylish in 1931 and then to Mayobridge in 1933. He was a good, kindly, caring Priest and I have very fond memories of him. He was transferred to Burren in February 1941, but that same month was transferred to Cabra. he was very unwell at this period and he died on the 25th of May 1941. He is buried adjacent to the Church entrance doors in Mayobridge Graveyard. Reverend Fr Michael McCartan The Revd Fr. Michael McCartan was appointed to Mayobridge on the death of Fr. Pat and immediately captured the hearts of the people around Mayobridge. He was everything that was good in a priest, involving himself in all facets of life in Mayobridge. He always attended the football matches, home or away in which Mayobridge were participating. He would travel on the bus with the team, and spectators, to away games and would act as Umpire when required.

    Mainly Ulster families – “B” series – Smythe-Wood Newspaper Index Irish Genealogical Research Society Dr P Smythe-Wood’s Irish Newspaper Index Selected families, mainly from Ulster ‘SERIES B’ The late Dr Patrick Smythe-Wood presented a large collection of card indexes to the IGRS Library, reflecting his various interests, - the Irish in Canada, Ulster families, various professions etc. These include abstracts from various Irish Newspapers, including the Belfast Newsletter, which are printed below. Abstracts are included for all papers up to 1864, but excluding any entries in the Belfast Newsletter prior to 1801, as they are fully available online. Dr Smythe-Wood often found entries in several newspapers for the one event, & these will be shown as one entry below. Entries dealing with RIC Officers, Customs & Excise Officers, Coastguards, Prison Officers, & Irish families in Canada will be dealt with in separate files. In most cases, Dr Smythe-Wood has recorded the exact entry, but in some, marked thus *, the entries were adjusted into a database, so should be treated with more caution.

  • Church of Ireland Parish Registers
    National Archives Church of Ireland Parish Registers SURROGATES This listing of Church of Ireland parochial records available in the National Archives is not a list of original parochial returns. Instead it is a list of transcripts, abstracts, and single returns. The Parish Searches consist of thirteen volumes of searches made in Church of Ireland parochial returns (generally baptisms, but sometimes also marriages). The searches were requested in order to ascertain whether the applicant to the Public Record Office of Ireland in the post-1908 period was entitled to an Old Age Pension based on evidence abstracted from the parochial returns then in existence in the Public Record Office of Ireland. Sometimes only one search – against a specific individual – has been recorded from a given parish. Multiple searches against various individuals in city parishes have been recorded in volume 13 and all thirteen volumes are now available for consultation on six microfilms, reference numbers: MFGS 55/1–5 and MFGS 56/1. Many of the surviving transcripts are for one individual only – for example, accessions 999/562 and 999/565 respectively, are certified copy entries in parish registers of baptisms ordered according to address, parish, diocese; or extracts from parish registers for baptismal searches. Many such extracts are for one individual in one parish only. Some of the extracts relate to a specific surname only – for example accession M 474 is a search against the surname ”Seymour” solely (with related names). Many of the transcripts relate to Church of Ireland parochial microfilms – a programme of microfilming which was carried out by the Public Record Office of Ireland in the 1950s.
