  • This is the only James Lewis of about the right age I can find in Tyrone in the 1901 census. Is this your man? He was Presbyterian and born in Tyrone.

    Statutory birth registration only started in Ireland on 1.1.1864 so if he was born before that you won’t find a birth certificate. You might find his baptism, but to do that we need to know his denomination. So anything else you can tell us about him may be helpful.
