Reynolds - Limerick
« on: Wednesday 01 April 09 19:25 UTC (UK) »
Hi, looking for Reynolds family from Limerick. John Reynolds 1817 and Margaret 1821 - 1904 had 3 children John 1856, Elizabeth 1861 and Margaret 1864. Elizabeth married a Patrick Kinnoy (1852-1884) the family then moved to Cheshire. Why can't I find the census records in Ireland? Don't they have them?

We did have a census every ten years in Ireland but unfortunately most were destroyed and 1901 is the first complete census for all Ireland.

Right, thank you. They had moved by then. How do I find things out then, do they have parish records?

There's lots of information on the internet these days- actual records, details of sources available, etc.
See Ireland Resources board here to start learning about Irish records:
www.rootschat.com/forum/index.php/board,385.0.html

Here's a link to a book which explains Irish sources you can use (although it's for Co. Donegal the basic details pertain to all Irish research):
