Hi Eleanor, I searched for them and children but I can't find them on 1861, but haven't tried 1871 so will give that a go. I've tried searching under different spellings because of accent, with no luck, but I will give google a go, Thanks again, Lou

Hi Jay, I think I want to say thanks! Uhmm??!! But at least there is confort in the knowledge that others are in the same boat. It's so sad to realise I might never be able to trace them. But taking comfort in the knowledge I could have spent ages on them and got no further, and now I can focus on another side of the family - am feeling better now. thanks Lou

Hi all, just received my gt gt grandfathers Birth certificate confirming his mother's maiden name. My problem is that his parents were born in Ireland. Unfortunately the 1841 & 1851 Census just states Ireland. I've no idea where to start as this is the first link to Ireland. Would appreciate any advice. Thanks in advance, Lou
