Where to look?

I have Irish ancestry down the maternal line of my father. I would like to find how I can get Irish birth certs and marriage certs on specific relatives. It all seems so complicated.

I'm coming back for my second visit to Ireland Covid pending. I have relatives from Co monaghan and Dublin. I'll be visiting Dublin for certain where would I go for finding ancestry out etc.

Hi Feklar,
It depends on the years.
Up to 1944 marriage information is in this site below.
Deaths up to about 1960 but some do slip in later.
Births up to 1919.
Welcome to Irish Genealogy - Irish Genealogy

Births after 1919 go to......see link    They have births up to 1958. 
www.familysearch.org
If you use this site it gives deatails of the book number and volume number.

You say you are going to visit Dublin. Make sure you have all your background informaion first.
Do you want the Certs for Legal reasons? 
The above site give details, but if you need an actual cert. for Legal resons follow the links.

If you get really stuck, post another message and I will give you my email address

Hi Margot

These are great grandparents and great great grandparents going back. I only discovered I had them recently whilst on an ancestry site. Then realised they must have come over during the famine to Liverpool settling in Toxteth and other areas where my dad was born. I guess I'm just trying to find out how Irish am I. I would prefer to email rather than post on here.
