White family Ballysadare, co. Sligo
« on: Saturday 17 September 16 09:20 BST (UK) »
Hello,

I have managed to trace my ancestors back to Patrick and Mary White from Ballysadare, Sligo. Patrick was born in approx 1806 and Maty approx 1811 (although this changes on a later census to 1799??!)

This is based on census information from England , as they moved to Liverpool in 1831/1832.

Does anyone have any advice on how to find out their marriage date, or how to trace my ancestors back further than Patrick?

I have used a few well known ancestry sites, without having much luck.

Thanks
Richard

You haven't mentioned religion but if they were Catholic- unfortunately the free online records don't start early enough-

... and it might be that earlier records aren't available elsewhere-
