Hi

I am trying to find out more about my great grandfather James Daly (1871) born in Oldcastle.  He married Mary Lynch in March 1901.  Her parents were Michael Lynch and Anne Curren.  James went to Liverpool around March 1901 and Mary followed in May 1901.  Any information about James would be really helpful as I have hit a brick wall and would like to move on with the Daly family research.

thanks very much

    Below si the civil marriage index record for Mary and James. if you write to the General Register Office, you can get a copy of this record for around 4 euros. The record will show the names of the fathers of the bride and groom and where the bride and groom were living in 1901. Instructions are below.

    Go to this link http://www.welfare.ie/en/Pages/Apply-for-Certificates.aspx In the middle of the page there are links for birth, marriage or death certificates. Hit the link for the form you want. You will likely get a screen asking for a User Name and Password. (This is a program bug that the GRO has to correct). Hit cancel and the appropriate form should come up. Print the form and complete the requested information. Also provide the information from the index record--quarter/year of the event. registration district and the volume and page number where the event is recorded. Make sure you ask for a copy which costs around 4 euros. ( A cert costs closer to 20 euros). You can also ask the GRO to e-mail the copy back to you.
