John Mullins was born in Ireland in 1847/1851--he was my great, great grandfather. He came to Canada around 1850. He was a cabinet maker in Montreal.

RE- John Mullins
In order to establish where in Ireland John came from we will need more vital information about him.
A quick search for the years between 1847 and 1851 gave over 300 results for this name.
Passenger records , marriage certificates, death certifcates and Canadian census returns could provide this much needed information.
If you would like some help with the search please provide us with as much information possible.
Canadian census returns from www.familysearch.org for example
name: John Mullins event: Census event date: 31 Mar 1901 event place: A, Montr?al (city/cit?), Quebec, Canada gender: Male age: marital status: Married racial or tribal origin: Irish nationality: Canadian religion: Roman Catholic relationship to head: Head birthplace: Ireland estimated birth year: 1851 page: 15 household number: 153 Household Gender Age Birthplace head John Mullins M 50 Ireland wife Catherine Mullins F 44 Ireland daughter Mary Mullins F 22 Ireland daughter Margeret J Mullins F 20 Ireland son James Mullins M 16 Qc daughter Ellen Mullins F 13 Qc son Edward J Mullins M 9 Qc son Micheal J Mullins M 7 Qc brother James Mullins M 58 Ireland Not sure if this is your John but it shows that census returns could help in your search , in this case he was married to a Catherine also born in Ireland but in 1857 and it shows the name of the children still living at home
