See Introduction to Irish Records which will explain how you can look up the marriage in the civil registration index and then order the certificate-

Only two possibles from family search pilot website:

Anne Cosgrave, Jul - Sep 1921, Enniscorthy registration district, volume 4, page 291

Mary Anne Cosgrave, Apr - Jun 1918, Enniscorthy registration district, volume 4, page 289

Hope this helps.  My geography of Ireland is rubbish so no way of knowing how close they might be to what you're looking for.

Bunclody is in Wexford but right on the border with Co. Carlow.  Even though it's about 25km north of Enniscorthy, that should be the correct registration district  - so exactly the right area.

Not sure of the exact location of Kilrush (townland?) - if it's to the north west of Bunclody town the district could be Carlow.

Kirush is a parish and a village in Co Wexford close to Bunclody. Is certainly in County Wexford. While Bunclody would be in the registration district of Enniscorthy, Kilrush would almost certainly be Gorey district.

Hi

Did you look at the 1901 or 1911 Census ?  If you look at the placename search Kilrush is mentioned as an area and try all the townlands, there are only a few (won't take too long) and you will probably find them as younger people.  Graiguemore is listed as an area but they may have came from an adjoining townland in the same area so try Kilrush.  Its not a big area it is just a rural parish in North Wexford.  Births may have been registered in Newtownbarry (old name for Bunclody)

Good luck with your search

Ann Cosgrove is listed on the 1901 Census in Graiguemore but you have to search Newtownbarry for William Murphy and he is listed in 1901 as Graiguebeg (just a short distance away from Graiguemore)

Hope this helps you
