Good morning. I'm researching two lines of my family history that originated I believe in County Armagh and emigrated to the U.S. during the 1850's.
From the U.S. census records, William McCord was born 4/1838 and his death record shows his parents as George McCord and Anna Johnson. Records seem to indicate both families in Armagh.
William's spouse (married 1860 in the U.S.) was Mary Ann Crozier, born 3/1843 and her death record reflects parents as John Crozier and Isabelle Crozier. Again, I believe both families lived in Armagh.
Whatever you can find on their families would be much appreciated.
Thank you,
Frank

names and birth dates for family members of William McCord and Mary Ann Crozier

Welcome to RootsChat :)
What might their religious denomination be?
Civil Registration of all births and deaths started in 1864 in Ireland. Protestant and registry office marriages began in 1845, and all marriages from 1864.
So, before these dates, church records (if they are in existence) will need to be found, and you will need an idea of location (parish if not actual townland) in county Armagh and religion.

Well have you searched for the details on Irish Genealogy? Births, deaths and Catholic marriages start 1864 and non-Catholic marriages from 1845- N.I. counties stop at 1921 for marriages and deaths with births less than 100 years old not available. Be sure to search for both McCord & Mc Cord if you are looking for that family.

Is there a link that reflects census records in Ireland during the mid-1800's? thanks

Not sure what you mean by 'reflects census records in Ireland during the mid-1800's.' If you mean links to census records-
The first complete census for all Ireland is 1901. It and 1911 are online (free)-
http://census.nationalarchives.ie/
Only small fragments of earlier ones survive. Few bits of 1851 might be on above site (only 5 entries).

ok, thank you.
