Creighton/Creaton Census Help please

[culbaire]

Could this be the family in 1901 http://www.census.nationalarchives.ie/pages/1901/Roscommon/Fairymount/Leitrim/1666794/
and in 1911

I thought I had found her but it was not the correct family, archive links look like the right family - I just don't know where the older siblings have gone - I can't trace them

[hallmark]

Well you know the county they were born in so go to http://www.census.nationalarchives.ie/search/#searchmore and just put in the Surname and then "County/Country of Origin" and put in the birth county then search.

If, for example they were born in Clare but were in Dublin in census time this should find them...

Thanks, I'll try that, my problem is the spelling variation of the surname

Try a wild card   cre*   for Surname.

Have done - thanks again for reply

My grandmother was Mary Kate (Molly) Creighton from Aughaloor, Loughglynn, Roscommon. She was born 1891. Her mother was Winifred Creighton and father Thomas Grogan from Behy, Castlerea, Roscommon. Her parents were married in Loughglynn Church circa 1889.
I think Winifred's parents were Anrew Creighton  and Mary (Maria) Mannion (but not confirmed).
The above posts refer to Frenchpark which is in the vicinity of the above townlands. I feel there is a connection. Any thoughts?

Yes, Winifred Grogan (nee Creighton).
