Hi Elwyn

Thanks for the reply. Leo is the g/grandfather of my cousins wife.
Were did you find the birth reg and how do I obtain a copy ?
I have both the 1901/1911 census.
Do you know where I might find marriages?

Births, Deaths & Marriages can be searched on the on the LDS pilot site. It doesn’t include BDMs in Northern Ireland after 1922:

FamilySearch Record Search

That gives you the likely entries. There are several options for getting copies of the certificates. You can order them from the appropriate local registry office, from the central GRO office in Roscommon or via an LDS library. There are also some pay to view sites. I tend to use GRO Roscommon, which charges €4 for a research copy, provided you give them accurate data including the year, volume and page number, which you can get off the LDS site. (Can cost more if you don’t give accurate data and they have to search). GRO website: The General Register Office Ireland :: An tSeirbhs um Chlr Sibhialta

Download and print the application form, and then post or fax it back to them. Ask for a photocopy (a research copy), as this is cheaper than the full formal certificate. Takes about 10 to 14 days from when they receive it.
