Hi, My great grandmother was from Westmeath, I think her name was Margaret Horan, she married Edward Browning, a British soldier in Cork. My grandmother Mary Browning was born in Fermoy. I would love to have even a snippet of information about them. They married around the very early 1890s. thank you in advance.

In 1911 they say they are married 21 years so c 1890, but I'm not seeing it.

James died in Fermoy

I see they had 11 children 7 living in 1911 so I wonder if James was their first child?
For ref 1901

Ballinderry is the address on (Margaret )the first child's birth, Margaret quite possibly had her at her parents home.
A Mary Horan Aunt was the informant in both the birth and death.
Sorry dathai just reading over the thread I see you already noted this, this is what happens when you do searches at work those pesky customers keep interrupting. :D

Nice one,
The marriage doesn't seem to be registered but there is one marriage result for Edward Browning 1889 +/- 5 on RootsIreland which is a subscription site but does a 24 hour sub.

They were married at - Cathedral of the Immaculate Conception (R.C.). Built in 1836, it was demolished in 1936 to make way for the new Christ the King Cathedral.

Thank you everyone, I would like to thank you all individually but I don't know how, so much information to process, but I am very grateful for all your help.
Thank you so much

Does the British Army overseas register include marriages?
Ireland wasn't overseas in the 1890s. I would think that a marriage would still have to be registered in the county in which it took place anyway.

Hi, My uncle was drown as a child in the river Lagan in 1929. His name was Andrew Johnston. I have newspaper clippings of the incident and photographs. He lived in 42 Clyde Street Belfast. I was wondering if anyone could find out who his father and family was or any information at all relating to the Johnston family from this address. Thank you for all your help in the past, I am very grateful.
kind regards

His death is post 1922 so it's won't be on Irish Genealogy, you need Northern Ireland records at PRONI, I've never needed to use it so I always forget the rules.
Assuming his birth is less than 100 years ago than I don't think the cert can be viewed online but his death cert possibly is viewable, you do need to purchase a few credits, it's hard to tell how much information you would gain for the death cert, his age at least, maybe his father's occupation, and hopefully the informant is a family member.

thank you so much Sinann, you are very helpful.

Face book say's age 11 died while fishing his attempted rescuer also drowned
