I'd would love to find the baptisms/birthdates of Margaret Henderson and her sister Mary. According to gaol reports birthplace was Leixlip Co Kildare and I believe Margaret was born around 1826 and Mary around 1833. Margaret Henderson married my Great Grandfather Richard Ennis around mid 1840s and had 2 children. Place and date of marriage is unknown.
Any information about the sisters and family will be very welcome.
Thank you.

Hi,
Thanks again for your message.
I have responded to your message looking for the baptism/birth records of Robert and Patrick Ennis. There I gave you some websites which you may find useful. They will also apply here. One additional link however, is the Irish Times link for parish records. Leixlip is part of Maynooth Roman Catholic parish, to see what is available there follow this link:
