Hello,
I am researching a marriage between James Farrell of Bride Street and Mary Fortune of Byrnes lane on 6th May 1924. Mary's father is Nicholas Fortune (sailor). I am told that Byrnes lane is known as Fishers row. Can anyone tell me where they might be in the 1911 census as there seem to be many Fortunes in Wexford?

Captain John McGuan has 8 crew so this would include Nicholas aboard the Lightship

Many thanks Dathai.
It looks promising but I need to confirm it. I know where Selina's line goes right up to present day but I need help with Mary. If she is the right one, I need  to research more because it has been suggested elsewhere that she died in Yorkshire in 1943, but no mention of a marriage to James Farrell in 1924.

Big sigh..

Dathai,
If I ordered the marriage cert for James & Mary, what info would it show?
