Kilroy in 1851 Census Lookup Please

[katarina]

Hi from a new member!

Would it be possible to look in the 1851 census index for JAMES KILROY.
I really need to know in what country he was born and if the index shows the actual parish too i would be over the moon! James' age in 1851 is debatable because i think he told a few pork pies about it when he married in 1853 (to Honor Pryke of Barrow, Suffolk) he was 30 years old, which made his birth year 1922/23, but when he died in 1871 he was 56 years old which would have made  his birth year circa 1814/1815!!!!!
If it helps at all, James and Honor married in St James district of Bury St Edmunds

Thanks in advance for any help

To Sue,
           Thank you very much for taking the time to look for my James, at least I now Know that he was not in Suffolk as i had hoped he might be...unless his surname was transcribed incorrectly. I have found some of my Kilroy's under Kibroy, Kelroy and Gilroy before. Anyway, I will go on searching for my elusive soldier of the 61st Regiment of Foot - James Kilroy.

Regards
