I've just tried the site with the corrected name as suggested (groni)and got 'page not found'. I put in the first page 'Proni' and got through no problem. Just thought i'd mention it. Lou

Researching:
Baker, Blann. Coyne, Jackman, Parr, Price,

I think that you will find that this site is for Northern Ireland only. It is run by PRONI (Public Record Office for Northern Ireland) The site is slightly outdated as it is still using the name PRONI instead of GRONI (General Register Office of Northern Ireland) You will need to consult Griffiths first to ascertain who the Landowner is of the property that your ancestor was renting the property from. Remember that most people would have been renting property. Janet
