My gr gr grandparents were John Mahon & Anne Kelly. They lived in a very small town called Moher, just outside of Ballinasloe. According to the marriage record for their daughter Eleanora, they were still alive when she got married to her 2nd husband Thomas Simmons in 1889. I have never been able to locate any records for John & Anna other than the mention in the marriage record. I've tried the National Archives without success. If anyone can locate a death record for either of them I'd appreciate it very much.
Thanks

Welcome to Ireland Reaching Out!
I also could not find a death record searching www.irishgenealogy.ie . Maybe the deaths were not civilly registered or the spelling was different. Also, civil marriage records only list the father's name of the bride and groom so it is possible that Anne died before 1889.
