Ancestors born in Ireland now in Poplar. From 1861 census, 4 children born in Ireland 5th child poplar, therefore believe would have traveled from Ireland before birth of 5th child ( 1855 to 1858) Is there some way of checking this ?

Charles King 1824 Wife Susan 1821 children James / Mary/Charles /Richard
Irish Margaret English.

Is there some way of finding out birth place for Charles King / wife Susan

Many thanks in advance Ann

There are no records of travel between Ireland and the UK mainland

Look for baptisms at.............

https://familysearch.org/

Was the youngest child's birth registered?

If it was....get a copy of the cert to find out the mother's maiden name, without which you can't look for her baptism

A few trees on ancestry state that Susan's maiden name was Latham. Also that her father was Thomads and she was born in Cork.

I think I would make contact with the tree owner an ask where they info comes from.
