There is an Ellen Hilliard birth registered Dublin South 1873, but presumably she is the Ellen Hillyard baptised that year whose father was Charles Hillyard.

And there is an Ellen Hilliard born 5 Feb 1867 at High Street, Eastside, Killarney, Kerry, baptised Catholic, father Richard Hilliard, occupation not shown, mother Johanna McCarthy, sponsors Charles McCarthy and Johanna Glaveen. But this is nowhere near either of the places that your Ellen says she was born!

Thank you kiterunner -- they've both been added to my list of possible sightings.

I wonder when the Irish Civil Records site will finally get itself sorted.
