Your greats appear to get you back 4-5 generations. This could place your available records at post 1864 which would make it easier since civil records for Catholics started. Before that time, if they are available, a big IF, would only be sacramental records. This would mean you would need a townland/village and/or a landlord,etc. If you could supply dates/approx.dates, places someone might be able to assist you.
