Hi, im looking for a Joseph Kemps b c1800 (+/- 15 years) in Ireland-i think he was born in Raphoe in Donegal. Also his son William Kemps b c1834 also in Ireland. They left for Scotland between 1840 and 1850 -presumably due to the potato famine. I was wondering of anyone could help me find the birth or early 1841 census returns? Thanks to all, Michael
