He was the brother of my GGrandfather who was reported to have emigrated to Australia. From hi s Australian death certificate I found his parents names, actually verified the names, and the «u»town«/u» of birth in Ireland. Knowing the birth town in Ireland I was able to get a record of his baptism in Ireland, again verifying his parents nam es. Then from Scottish census records was able to find the family in Ayrshire Scotland beginning in 1851. I still do not have any record of my GGrandfathers birth or baptism as Irish records were lost or destroyed for his time of birth. It was a l ittle more complicated than the above, but that is the essence of the search. I have since been in contact with a distant relative in Australia, who was alerted to my findings via Ancestry. I am trying to find some family in Scotland, but so far h ave had no luck. I wish I could get further back in Ireland, but it looks dismal to do so. It does not look good for going back more, there do not appear to be any records back before 1835 in Leitrim County of my people, although I am still trying. I have emailed the Parish Priest there and he said he would look for actual records which may have more information than the summaries I received. I found in Scotland that the Baptismal records recorded witnesses, who in one case were my GGrandpar ents.
