Hi

I am searching for Patrick Tolan b @ 1845 in Ireland and living in Heckmondwike Yorkshire (I am hoping) His father's name is Edward (as on marriage cert). Patrick married Bridget Hinningan/Henegan in 1878 Heckmondwike and continued living in that area for ther est of his life so I am hoping I can find him on 1871 census. Are there any records of people cming to live in England from Ireland from 1850-1880s that I may look at to see when Patrick (and any others from his family) may have come to England.

Hi MLR

I can find Patrick and Bridget in 1881/91/1901 but not 1871. In 1891 his brother Edward 34 is living with them.

Hi MLR
I believe no records were kept of Irish people as they came to England by their thousands, many in transit to USA.
Some went to Scotland first, especially from the North, just a short boat ride.

There is a Tolan family in Lancs in 1861, Edward is 4 born Ire, there's also a Pat aged 15.
Here's the link

There's an Edward 23 bn Ire lodging in Heckmondwike 1881.

One would think that William Tolan in 1871 bn Ire living in Heckmondwike
would be a relative?

Hi thanks for the info, it confirms that Patrick must have come over between 1871 and 1878 when he got married, I know his father is called Edward

Thanks again
