John and Ann HART BRUTON were early immigrants to New York, later California. They lived in Dublin, Dublin, Ireland prior to 1849. They had at least 11 children, most of them were born in Ireland before they immigrated. I am trying to find the parish that they would have lived in. Some of their children's names were Thomas, John, Henry, Mary, James, William, George, Daniel, Maurice, Isabel and Margaret. This was a big family and they all came to New York with the exception of Maurice who ended up in Australia. Ann was a widow in 1880 while living in Brooklyn, then later in Alameda, California. I have some information on the children but none on John or Ann Hart, who were born and married in Dublin. What records would be best to look in? Ireland's records are a bit confusing to me. Are there any census records for Dublin available prior to 1849? Any marriage index records? Thank you for any help. Chris
