Find Ancestors

Im a beginer and reseached my family name GALVIN, back to William Galvin b c1824. I know he was born in Ireland, but dont know where, and moved to Halifax where he married Mary Hunt, had his children and died in c1886. I would be very interested in help at finding where in Ireland he was from and hopefully go back further in my tree....thanks Steve

Have you tried the Familysearch site? Would help if you have his father's name from the marriage cert too.
