Hi
Looking for any information on my Great, great, great grandfather his date of birth was 1811 & his wife Margaret Kennedy was born 1815. They immigrated to Australia around 1840ish.
Any information would be great.
Regards

Welcome to Ireland Reaching Out!
I searched on Roots Ireland from 1828-1848 for a marriage between Patrick O'Connor and Margaret Kennedy and the only record that came up was this 1832 marriage in Donoughmore RC parish in Co. Cork. See the transcript info below. Here is a link to the parish register http://registers.nli.ie/parishes/0043 I don't know if this marriage is for your ancestors but certainly it is a good lead. Do you have the names of the parents of Patrick and Margaret from a death record or other source? I could then look for a baptismal record. However, church record availability gets scarce when you go back to the early 1800s.
