Help needed
« on: Thursday 12 May 05 17:15 BST (UK) »
I am trying to find the marriage of Andrew FAGAN and Mary GILBERT sometime around 1886. I have them on their sons marriage cert in Glasgow, Scotland 1914 but nothing before that.
Think they may have been married in Ireland before coming to Scotland. Can anyone help me find anything more about them as i haven't a clue where to start the search.
Many thanks
Amanda

Hei Amanda,

http://scripts.ireland.com/ancestor/surname/index.cfm Irish Ancestors Surname Search may assist you finding the county from which Andrew Fagan and Mary Gilbert came and the county in which they were married. This site enables you to do a cross check on the names and shows the county in which families of both names were to be found at the same time. 

Best Wishes,  Christopher

Thanks Christopher,

I had actually been on there before but never noticed that you can try both surnames of a couple to find a match that way.
Thanks for that
