Killashee Parish Register — Moffett extractions



The Killashee Parish Register is all important in understanding the Moffat families of Co. Longford. It is likely the family was present from the mid to late 1600s, but the existing registers cover the period from 1771 onwards — the earliest in Co. Longford.
