Ancestry has free access to Griffiths Valuation 1848 -1864 (which is apparently like a census for landholding in Ireland) just for one day - says for 2nd of October but I assume it is on some US time zone as it is working right now :)

Researching:
Rowland, Hone, in Stratford (West Ham) and Essex

You could try this site for Irish roots:-

There is a Dominic Molloy showing for a church baptism in 1838, however you need to buy credits to look at the record

Hi, can anyone point me in the right direction, my great great grandparents were from Ireland circa 1830's-40's , great great grandgrandmother was Rose Boylan (1841?) from County Leitrim, my great great grandfather was Dominic Molloy 1838, I have traced them in the UK but I have no idea how to trace in Ireland, I can't find Rose Boylan in the 1851 census (uk) so I have no idea of her parents/family who came to UK with her, my problem is the names keep getting spelt in various ways ie Molloy, Maloy etc, I am assuming Boylan is spelt differently in the 1851 census, I have tried variants...any help would be much appreciated :-)
