I'm looking for birth, marriage and death information for Peter Dunn.
He was Born in Dublin Ireland in 1843 give or take one year. Moved to Sheffield park by 1871 and somewhere in between married Catherine (also Irish but from Mayo ). He had at least 5 children. William, Margaret, Ellen, Elizabeth and Sarah.
His occupation was Blacksmith.
I'm not sure if he married in England or Ireland but his first son was born in 1869.
Not sure how to search Irish records any help would be appreciated.

have you found them on any census. the birth area of their children will help to establish when he came over from Ireland

All his children were born in Sheffield Park area England.
