1881 Census Lookup, County Lettrim

[jsanders]

Hello, I'm researching some Doyle's and O'Rourke's from County Leitrim, in the mid to late 1800's.  I have found them in the 1901 census, but have been unable to find them listed elsewhere.  If anyone could provide any assistence, I would be very greatful.  

Below is the family I'm looking for.  I listed there estimated birth years if known.

John Doyle (unknown) married to an Esther O'Rourke (1850?)

Children:
    Mary Ann 1873
    Michael 1874
    Bridget 1875
    Patrick 1880
    Bernard 1882
    Ella 1885
    Catherine 1886
    Elizabeth 1887
    John 1894 (possible 1889?)
    Margaret  1893
    Sarah 1894
    James (unknown)

For those of you who might be looking into other surnames from county Leitrim, I am also researching two other surnames (Fox and McGovern) from around this time.

Thanks, Jim

Hiya Jim,

How are you progressing with your search for the Doyle's and O'Rourke's? I presume you may know by now
that there is not an 1881 Irish Census. Have you found the townland or townlands where these families lived?

Hi Jim

I have a cousin searching McGoverns in Leitrim and the US. Do you know whereabouts in Leitrim yours hailed from?

I have a Mary McGOvern who married a Bernard Sweeney or McSweeney or Sweeny in the early 1800's - any takers

I don't suppose your Fox's and McGovern's were from Halls, Cloone parish?
