I sent you a message last week under Co.Down for above great grandparents Wm./Minnie Moore and their daughter Evelyn ( my grandmother) but don't know if I omitted to add that their surname was Moore.Also a census stated that Minnie ( nee Morgan) was born in Co. Tyrone. I am sorry for not properly checking my message before I sent it. I look forward to hearing if you have found anything. BeswishesEvelyn.

Hi Evelyn,
Thank you for your message.
Civil registration became mandatory in Ireland in 1864, so given the dates you mentioned in your earlier message you should be able to find records of these families in civil records.
Irish civil records are available from the General Register?s Office in Dublin. Here is their website:
http://www.groireland.ie/research.htm
You can search the indexes to these records online at:
https://familysearch.org/search/collection/1408347
Please note that the GRO in Dublin only holds records from Northern Ireland until 1922. For records after this date please go to http://www.proni.gov.uk/

I hope that this is helpful,
Kind regards,
