Peter,

Sometimes serendipity reveals a link. Several years ago I was viewing microfiche copies of Irish Censuses made available through the local (Adelaide) LDS library. There was a small cost, but the search was worth it. After locating and finding what I wanted, I happened to flick over a few pages, as you do, and noticed a familiar name and guess what? It was that of the birth place of my grandmother! Something that had escaped the family historians. So occasionally just unstructured browsing over old records can be useful, if tedious.

_Altedesert C of I_

From PRONI Guide to Church Records, Baptisms 1877-; marriages 1846-; and burials 1877- are in “local custody", yet Len Swindley’s transcriptions mention FHL Film and suggest filming by PRONI staff.  Does this mean the same records are in two places, PRONI and local?

In any case, as Len Swindley has transcribed marriages 1846-1852 which hopefully overlaps into nidirect marriage records (from 1845 depending on denomination) if one is looking for such marriages and baptisms and burials before 1877 (baptisms and deaths /from/ 1877 are well into nidirect records) there does not seem much point in viewing these records wherever they are, except for the slim chance of picking up something not registered.  Is that a reasonable statement?

_Pomeroy Presbyterian_

From the PRONI Guide, Baptisms 1841-1967, Marriages 1845-1936 records appear to be at PRONI MIC1P/20 and available to be perused.

From all this, it would seem pointless to go to these two localities for information, other than viewing the graveyard at Pomeroy Presbyterian (no graveyard at Altedesert Parish Church)?

Appreciate any comments.

Regards
