Does anyone have access to the Ahamlish Co Sligo 1881 and 1891 census who could do a look up for me? I'm anxious to discover who the parents were of Malachy Brennan born 1877. Kindest regards Jackie.

Census information Crown Copyright, from www.nationalarchives.gov.uk
First complete census for all Ireland is 1901. Only a few small fragments for a few areas of earlier census records survive but can't see any 1881 and 1891 for County Sligo. Since Malachi Brennan was born around 1877 there should be a birth certificate for him although you may need more information to order it. Do you know of any siblings? Have you tried searching for him in IGI? IGI has some. not all, Irish births 1864-c1882.
Many thanks for your reply, you saved me masses of researching time.. I'd totally forgotten about the IGI (case of can't see the wood for the trees!) Found Malachi imediately on the IGI, sadly wasn't mine. Regards Jackie.
