I've managed to trace back to my gg grandfathers and they were both born in Ireland. I've just about mastered 1881, 1901 census and 1837 online. But I have no idea how I go about finding anything further on the Irish connection - please help me!

Do you have any idea of whereabouts in Ireland they were from as if not i would think its virtually impossible especially if they have common names
