You could try the census records on the Scotlandspeople website. Unfortunately you will have to buy credits to use the site.

Civil registration in Ireland of births, death & Catholic marriages began 1864 (Protestant marriages 1845) so for earlier records you need to locate church records.
Have you tried looking on www.familysearch.org yet?
Away sorting out DNA matches... I may be gone for some time many years!
