Hello Trudi,

What denomination was Patrick? Was he a members of the Catholic faith, the Established Church (Anglicans or Church of Ireland) or possibly a Presbyterian?

You'll have to rely on Church records as civil registration in Ireland was not introduced until 1864. Non Catholic marriages were registered from 1845 onwards. When registration for BDMS started in 1864 some people didn't bother with the registration for a few years after that date. Keep your fingers crossed that church records still exist.

Hello Christopher,
 Thanks for your reply i believe Patrick would have been a Catholic as the family all were.
