Hi,
im looking for some idea of how to go about tracing Patrick Conway and his wife Julia. On the 1871 England census their place of birth is listed as Quiens Coronty Ireland. Someone suggested that this may be Queens County, but i have no idea if thats true.
Id be grateful for any help.
Thanks
Marie

Sounds VERY likely to  me — you can almost here the accent, written as it sounds!
Google queens county ireland and there are a few useful sites.
Ireland is difficult as you probably know — a lot of their records  have been lost and census returns were burnt (aarghhh!). I found my Irish gggmother only when I employed a county research society.
Good luck, Rian.
