It will work on Ancestry. It takes some fiddling around with on askaboutireland to make it work

First record on Ancestry
 
Denis O'Brien Esquire MD
Viscount Dillon Aghaderry, Tibohine, Roscommon 

Second record

Denis O'Brien Esquire MD
Lord Inchiquin Sixmilebridge, Kilfinaghta, Clare 

Note no other Denis O'Brien appears with this designation after his name

O'Brien, Horan, Neary (Co. Roscommon, Co Clare, Shropshire and Wrexham)
Dolan, McGovern, McGrail (Co. Cavan, Co. Leitrim and Worcester USA)

the Ancestry transcripts look wrong, there's no sign of the Esquire or MD on the original images for the Denis in Aghaderry, Tibohine parish

Denis O'Brien landlord Denis O'Brien jun and than Denis O'Brien jun  landlord  Lord Innchiquin.
As athacliath62 said nothing to indicate Esq or MD, are they just giving to titles to everyone in the Landlord list.

Yes we believe they are father and son.

Below is the askaboutireland parish.

Aghaderry  Roscommon  Frenchpark  Tibohine  Aghaderry 

The question is where is Ancestry getting the Esquire MD from, not just for this but for many others when it dos'nt appear on the record itself when you view it. It must have come from somewhere.
O'Brien, Horan, Neary (Co. Roscommon, Co Clare, Shropshire and Wrexham)
Dolan, McGovern, McGrail (Co. Cavan, Co. Leitrim and Worcester USA)

the esq. and MD are not on the image which is the original source

If they cant explain then I would doubt the accuracy of their transcript. I'd suggest the images are the best source. Does ancestry show these ?

if not I'd go with AskAboutIreland or FindMyPast
