Denise, If you add htm to the end of the link it will take you there, that is http://www.clarelibrary.ie/eolas/coclare/genealogy/census_1866/census_1866.htm I was lucky enough to find my QUEALY / QUALEY and MACK family (at least those who remained behind in Ireland) there. You say no parents names are given on Martin Corbett's death certificate - what about his marriage certificate? As he was giving the information himself at that time (as opposed to the death cert.) it can be more reliable.

Hi, Thank you, but unfortunately there's even less info on his marriage cert. It's blank for both his & Catherines parents & birthplace details. The witnesses were Hourigan & Regan - Catherines family. I just looked at the Census. Not one Corbett there. At least it was quick!!
