hi louise,
it would all depend on the dates that you have,the religion,townland names or parishes.registers of births and deaths only started in 1864, marriages for non-roman catholic started in 1845 and in 1864 for catholic marriages. if your dates are any earlier than these then you wont be able to get certificates and will have to rely on church records.
if you post the details of the people here then i'm sure people will be able to point you in the right direction :) any little clue can help :)
