Do you have even approximate years of birth and/or marriage for George ?

A marriage cert is usually the best place to start you search, as that will give you his father's name and occupation and help confirm and births you find.

see : Introduction to Irish Records

There's a possible marriage for George in 1956 :

 Name:   George McLean
 Registration district: Rathdrum
 Event type: Marriage
 Quarter and year:   Oct-Dec 1956
 Volume : 2 / Page : 327

The registration district is correct for Arklow.

see the following topics for details on marriage certs :

McLean is not a very common surname in Co. Wicklow so not that many registrations. Here's a few possible links that might be worth following up once you confirm George's father's name.

Possible birth for George :

 Name:   George McLean
 Registration district: Rathdrum
 Event type: Birth
 Quarter and year: Jan-Mar 1922
 Volume : 2 / Page : 684

There's also a marriage for another George McLean the year before Georges birth - possibly his father ?

 Name: George Alexander McLean
 Registration district: Rathdrum
 Event type: Marriage
 Quarter and year: Oct-Dec 1921
 Volume : 2 / Page :   807

Also a possible death for the same person :

 Name: George Alexander McLean
 Registration district:   Rathdrum
 Event type: Death
 Quarter and year: Oct-Dec 1944
 Age : 60     (est. year of birth 1884)
 Volume : 2 / Page : 544

And also a possible listing for George snr on the 1911 census :

 McLean / Leech household, Upr Tinahask St, Arklow

This George lists his place of birth as Dublin City ... and there' is also a possible listing for him on the 1901 census at Drumcondra North Dublin :

 McLean household - 1901

I'm not sure you can visit the Roscommon office - it's mainly for orders of certs by post.

The research room is in Dublin (Irish Life Centre, Abbey St) - see the top of this page on their website :  http://www.groireland.ie/research.htm
