Hi Gail

The children were b Northumberland - not Ireland so I have posted some info on your other post

...he was in england for 1911 census, cant find him on ni census for 1901,

the 1901 census details are not on line on the National Archives website yet. (http://www.census.nationalarchives.ie/)

They are due to start processing these as soon as the 1911 data is completed - hopefully later this year.

Thanks Shane - but would it not matter that he was born in the north of ireland? i am looking forward to doing a wee bit of research anyhow - did it years ago for my mum in law. so going to research me dads granda, and then my mums side! Glutton for punishment. So i will just have to wait and be patient!

we were all part of the United Kingdom back then - i.e. pre Independence in 1922..
So the index books and registers in the GRO (Dublin/Roscommon) cover the whole of the island of Ireland.
