Is this Henry Tait connected to the one on your other post?

Civil registration of births in Ireland started in 1864 so there will be no birth certificates before that date. For earlier records you need to know where the family lived (parish if not actual townland).

over 100 Tait birth/baptisms on Parish Records transcripts at irish-roots between 1859-1867 but no Henry.

counties include Armagh, Tipperary, Limerick, Leitrim, Down, Cavan, Dublin, Galway and one in Co. Westmeath.

(not all counties are included on this site at present)

It's not surprising that no Henry Tait was found as he could have been born either before civil registration or in its early years when not all births were registered..
