Hi,
  I'm searching for a Michael Woods, b1811 Monaghan.
He is on the County Antrim 1851 Ireland census as a ploughman, from Monaghan aged 40,
 married to Elizabeth and they have four children.
Any info please

For reference, here's a link to 1851 census-

Eldest child listed as born Co.Down- have you tried looking for church record of marriage there? Did all the children stay in Ireland? if not, might be able to get more details in overseas records

Thanks aghadowey,
                       I'm trying to tie their daughter, Ann, in as my great grandmother.
Robert Turkington married Anne Woods in 1860, Marriage cert has her down as 19, it also says her father was  Michael Woods labourer.
Thought I would start at Monaghan and see if there is a connection.
