Apply online to http://www.groireland.ie
This seems to be the family in the 1911 Census http://www.census.nationalarchives.ie/p ... ha/362131/

I'm not at all sure that the GRO address you gave P.J. will work for a genealogical record. The application form requires information that you probably wouldn't have - until you get the certificate!

Has anybody used this service? It would be very useful to know of others' experiences.
