The priests were not consistent with the how they spelt
Residence, Surnames or Names. Furthermore there are ample samples where
the priests weren't consistent even on the same record, e.g. names/places
spelt on the left columns weren't reflected as on the right. This transcription
attempted to capture what the priests historically recorded, however,
there is an alternative supplied when searches were tested and it was
obviously the same families with variations, e.g. the left is transcribed
as per the original as it appears (alternative spelling in brackets)
MORIFOY (MURPHY).
The Priests’ numbering system throughout the Killaloe Registers
were not written by the original priests who authored them, the primary
evidence is that the hand-writing is not the same and the numbering
system occurred many decades after the events. Based upon notations
on the front/back of the registers, there is some transcriptions from
Fr. John McInerney. Fr. McInerney served in Killaloe from 1900-06 and,
during this time, he had Registers re-bound at Limerick. It is likely
that Fr. McInerney was the candidate who undertook the task to number
the registers.
