If anyone can lok up Ireland records I would appreciate any info about the Hunt family from Sligo.

I am trying to confirm dob for John Hunt.

UK census shows he was born in Cloonacool, Sligo in 1851. (1881 RG11/4953, 1891 census ref RG12/4098). His marriage cert (same wife as on the census, Mary Dinnon) suggests dob as 1849.

What I believe to be his death cert (right area [county Durham], his son registered the death) suggests his dob is 1845.

I am led to believe his parents were John and Catherine. I know he had siblings but don't know any details other than some emigrated to UK and some emigrated to USA.

Any pointers appreciated.

Thanks

Jon
