Bear in mind that vast quantities of older Irish records have been destroyed at various times

Can't see anything for them on irishgenealogy.ie, nor on FamilySearch or Ancestry (pre-1851).

Researching:
Old genealogists never die.....they just lose their census.

I am researching the family of Patrick McCormack (Ireland 1811- 1868 Nottingham) and his wife Catherine (Bridget on one census) Hewes (1820 Ireland - c 1875 Nottingham).

From the English censuses from 1851 to 1911 I have ascertained that they had at least four children in County Mayo before moving to Nottingham in around 1850, (approximate dates); James McCormack (1840), Roger McCormack (1841), Michael McCormack (1847) and Mary McCormack (1849).

While all the above specify County Mayo as their home County in at least one census , only Mary names her town of birth as Ballinrobe. In 1911 she was a widow living with her brother John McCormack (1855 Nottingham) and his family in Grove Street Nottingham as Mary Gallagher Sister 62 born Ballinrobe Mayo.

I am keen to find the Irish records of all the above but don't know where to begin. Can anyone help?

Thanks

Richard
