Hi Ed, Do you know what County or better yet parish your families came from? If so, you might be able to find their baptismal records on micorfilm at the National Library of Ireland. Some of these microfilms are not availalbe through the FHC. You also might want to visit the National Archives to search for detailed info on Griffith's Valuation entries and to search for probate records. I ahve used both and they are very helpful. Colleen
