full Civil registration started in Ireland  in 1864 so based on the 1881 census information posted by Diddy two of the Children's births should be included.

  John                     6                      c 1875
  George                3                       c 1878

An index to Irish Civil records is available on : http://pilot.familysearch.org/recordsearch/start.html#p=2;t=searchable;c=1408347

Cardoo sounds like an uncommon name so that might make the search easier. Willam and Isabella's marriage may also be included.

You can order research certs by post from the GRO using the index details  -  www.groireland.ie

Hi Scardoo - I see your thread was moved from my own.
 
I know of family directly descended (my boyfriends) from the Irish Cardoo family who moved to Scotland. They were from County Tyone. I've not much info in Ireland but plenty for Scotland.

I can't find them on the Irish Civil Records as much as I've tried!
These look to be like yours may be closely related to mine at least.

My earliest Cardoo so far is a Jane Cardoo born circa 1833 in Ireland and died 1899 in Coatbridge, Scotland. There's mention of Rutherglen in some records of her children. She married a Robert Gray (also Irish) in Co.Tyrone, Ireland around 1856. Her parents were William Cardoo born Ireland, a farm labourer and Mary.

I believe she could have also been born in Co.Tyrone around Dungannon, Minterburn.. maybe.

Contact me through PM If you'd like

I suspect the spelling of the surname have been altered somewhere along the line - the closest that I can see as a possible match is Cordue.

There are a few civil records for this surname around Tipperary & Limerick - but nothing that I can see at the moment for the marriage or the two children.

Personally my Cardoo name ranges from, Cardoo - Cardow - Curdue (as you've mentioned) - Gardow.

His Grandmother is a Curdoe - to this day.

Lisa.


EDIT: Just on the off-chance that yours were Northern Irish too, you got me interested again. I did a look up of Cardoo and varients and found this:
Caddoo, Hugh, farmer, Minterburn
Caddoo, James, farmer, Tullygiven
Caddoo, John, Kilmore

... From the Belfast and Ulster Towns Directory for 1910 (website: http://www.libraryireland.com/UlsterDirectory1910/Caledon.php)

and a James Cadoo in Desertmartin

There's also a few listed on the Griffiths Valuation
