I searched the Irish Family History Foundation's database. It contains 12,000,000 surviving rcds for abt 60% of Irish counties. Rcds B4 1840 are sparse.
For Robert Johnson, B 1841 +/- 4 yrs in Sligo, I found 2 B rcds.
Note - the family may have embarked in Sligo, but may have been from another county. Suggest you get the names of his siblings and estimates of their DOB from U.S. censuses. With these, you MAY be able to identify their county and parish of origin. This is difficult, but doable.
Google the Foundation's name to lead you to this database. Pls post your search results to my Genforum msg. Good luck.
