If your Grandparent was born in Ireland, you're good to go. I thought my Grandad was born in England, my great-grandad in Ireland, which would've required Grandad being registered as a foreign birth in order to carry on down to me.
In the last 5mins, I've just found out my Grandad was born in Cork which means I'm elligble and all his certificates are at my uncles house
Time for a Guinness then!

The wording of different parts of that page are confusing me a bit. The table suggests someone (me) with an Irish grandparent can get an Irish passport by registering myself in the foreign births register but further up it seems to suggest (as I think you've inferred) that unless your parent was registered as a foreign birth then it's a no-go.
Is it definitely the latter?
