What do you know??

Are they on Census?

Have you searched Civil Registers?

Have you searched Parish Registers if they were RC's??

etc

Hi John

Not meaning to repeat what has already been said but a few more details would help the search to help you start in the right place

If you can let us know the approx date of birth for each man, the relationship to each other, any other relationship you might be aware of and finally what you are really hoping to locate - "looking for anything" is a very wide band! Is it more important to you to find, ancestors, siblings, descendants, etc.

Once you steer us in the correct direction we can start to help accurately
