Two branches of my family are down in the 1881 census as having been born in "Ireland". Can anyone tell me if it's possible to narrow down the field at all? I was resigned to not being able to find the one lot but to find there are two is really infuriating.

Angela Have you tried looking for them in another census? I had the same problem and looked in earlier and later censuses, and it gave where theycame from. Worth a try. Lynda
