Where were Thomas and Margaret living when they got married?

Have you found them in 1911 census yet?

This might be Thomas in CWGC records

Where were they living at the time of their marriage? I may have details but need more information to check through files.

i think coleraine. in 1914 when thomas sighned up at coleraine, he put residence as Clonavon Road. Sometimes it seems he spelt surname mcfall.

Cloonavin is the Council Offices but can't recall a Clonavon Road in Coleraine. Also, Thomas is not listed in Coleraine Heroes 1914-1918 which lists soldiers who died in WWI- only one listed is a John McFall of Camus outside Coleraine and I'm fairly certain that your Thomas is not related to that family.

Hi is listed in the bushmills heroes 1914-1918 born at priestland, bushmills.son of campbell and esther. commerated at dunluce parish church.
