I am trying to trace some ancestors who I believe lived in Co Cavan. Patrick Divine born c 1768 in ireland. Married Helen Cunningham possibly in Ireland. Died 1836 in Edinburgh aged 72. His children are Rose Ann c 1793, edward c 1792, peter c 1803, Mary c 1803, bridget c 1808, michael c1821, robert c 1816. The 1871 census for his son michael records his place of birth as Co. Cavan. Any help appreciated.

Ann-Marie, there are no civil records for the time of your ancestors in Ireland and it looks like there may be no church records either. The records above are from the Tithe Applotment Books; it is possible one of the Patricks is yours and maybe the Edwards or Peter too.
In the 1796 Flax Growers List, the following Divines were listed:
Deven James Drumlane Cavan
Devin Bryan Drumlane Cavan
Devin James Drumlane Cavan
Devine Bryan Crosserlough Cavan
Devine John Crosserlough Cavan
Devine Patrick Crosserlough Cavan
Divin Thomas Killashandra Cavan
Divine Charles Kildallan Cavan
Thanks Patricia, im hoping a visit to Edinburgh to access some asylum records for one of his children might narrow down a location in Co. Cavan. One of his childrens death records referred to patrick as a crofter so maybe the tithe books are promising.
