Thank you all for your comments about finding COLLINS Michael or Thomas. I found plenty of those names in the Dublin Birth Marriage and Death Record office listings. BUT I cannot find any connection with my father MICHAEL COLLINS who was born here in South Shields, Durham England. I only got the other first names form documents here in England. So I am still looking for a connection and they both should have been born after Registration started in Ireland!!!.
