Civil registration of births started in 1864. For earlier dates you'll need to search for church records.
Have a look at Introduction to Irish Records and My Ancestor came from Ireland - where do I start?.
Away sorting out DNA matches... I may be gone for some time many years!

Hi,
   Cannot find birth but my source states that Henry McGuigan married Margaret LEVINGSTON in Dromore Roman Catholic Church, Omagh, Tyrone.
