Search the IFHF's online database at ROOTSIRELAND.IE. It has abt 20 M church, civil, census, etc B/M/D records for MOST Irish counties, including Sligo. Records before 1863 are increasingly sparse - almost none before 1800.
By 1864, civil B/M/D registration was mandatory. You can contact the General Register Office at GROIRELAND.IE to have its staff search its databases.
Hope this helps. Good luck.
