Both countries are finicky about the release of records...and anything more than 100 years old probably wasn't recorded by civil authorities. But if they were Catholic and you can figure out which parishes baptized them, then you can request information on them from the sacramental registers for Baptisms, Marriages and Last Rites/Burials. In most cases, you can get records back to 1400 if the family stayed in the same parish.

Have you tried using Familysearch.org? It is a really easy to use website, especially if you have birthdates for your great-great grandparents.

Good luck!
