Hi Helen!
How do you go about getting the old St. Anne's records without showing up in person? Most of the church people I have dealt with seem to consider hunting for records a major pain. I have even sent monetary contributions and been completely ignored. The lady in charge of records at Mount Carmel (where I THOUGHT the old St. Anne's records were located) even launched into a tirade about the nuisance factor of "those Irish" ancestor-seekers! Have you been able to get funeral records, or just baptism/marriage records. Any recommendations? Thanks, Eileen
