Hi there how about this thought the chances are that Henry was born in the area he died. A long shot l know but how about searching his area for church's that would take in children. Workhouses in Wicklow may have something to help with your search.
Someone suggested children are often named after person who found them. What about looking at the name of someone 20yrs or so older than your Henry. You may find out where that person lived.
Good Luck we always need that. K

Hi Murrell

You've posted a reply on a topic started in 2012 and littlemissx77 hasn't been online here since then.

As long as she hasn't changed her email address, she should receive a notification that you have posted and hopefully come back soon.
