I'm searching for descendants of my 2nd great grandfather Thomas Enright. He was born in Nov 1853 to Michael Enright and Bridget Haire. The other witnesses on his baptism are George Enright and Mary McCloud. He lived in NY for a time, but eventually settled in Illinois.

Hello Shanon, ref your query. There are some sites you can check out which are Free.
www.nationalarchives.ie has 1901 & 1911 Census records
In 1901 @ House No 29 in Mill Street (Ennis No 2 Urban Clare) Michael Enright age 46 Flour Merchant with his family - could be brother to your Thomas.
Also Griffith Valuation records on same archives website has a Michael Enright in 1855 in Parish of Drumcliff, Townland Cloghleagh, Place Name Old Mill Street, Ennis.Tithe Applotment books has several records for Enrights in the parish of Drumcliff mentioned above in Griffiths.
www.rootsireland.ie (pay to view site) has Baptish/Marriage records for Clare so worth a look.
Regards, Frances
