Looking for Mim and Bonnie Mitchell - son Norman Mitchell linen business

I am starting in on family history. The story is that we are related to John Mitchel, the Irish leader who wrote the " Jail Journal" and worked to end oppression. The challenge is I have limited data. My grandfather was Norman Mitchell, born in Ireland and son of Bonnie and Mimi Mitchell. Any data or suggestions on how to search are oh so welcome. I have photos of them but no dates of their birth,death, or union. And yes, plan to visit Ireland in future.

Iea,

A good idea in starting geneaIogy is to begin with yourseIf and work backward through the records--researching your parents, then grandparents, etc.

When was Norman born? What was his father's name? Did he emigrate? ChiIdren's names? Spouse?

Anything you can provide wiII assist the voIunteers.

There are eight Norman Mitchell civil birth records from 1864-1925. The names of the parents on the eight records did not show a Mim and Bonnie. What year was Norman born? Linen business would usually mean Northern Ireland and some of the records are in Belfast.
