If the KML was compiled by the use of a Google Maps layer then there is no way 
to sort out an OSM license, the data is polluted.

 Technically the Church of Ireland is of the Catholic Church, just not the 
Church of Rome.  I believe the term used in the Apostles' Creed is "Holy 
Catholic Church", but from reading OSM Wiki Church of Ireland should be tagged  
denomination=anglican.

Do they have the data in any other way, which isnt polluted by GM?

Id certain help out for County Fermanagh and neighbouring counties, if you can 
get a data source which is compatible with OSM.
