Hi I was wondering is there any emigration records for Drogheda Co Louth and Greenore Co Louth.

It's more usual to find records of arrival or naturalization in destinations rather than for people leaving. Where did these people end up ?

Before 1922 Ireland was part of the UK -  so there are no immigration records or passenger lists. It would have been the same as moving from London to Liverpool.

From 1922 the Irish Free State, and later the Republic was part of a free travel area with the UK - so again no records were kept of travel between the two areas.

All i have is the 1911 census record for England or births marriages and deaths.  The only way is if the left england and went to America were there is no trace so i would say its England were they went to
