Is it possible to order marriage certs from before 1900?
« on: Friday 22 May 15 09:45 BST (UK) »
Hi, I was just wondering if anybody knows if I can order marriage certificates for marriages registered before 1900?

I have ordered some from the HSE website but they only provide them from 1903 on wards and the one I am looking for is from 1894.

Thanks

There's an application form here:
https://www.welfare.ie/en/Pages/Apply-for-Certificates.aspx

as far as I know all certificates, from the start of Civil Registration, can be applied for?

Info about ordering certs on this link.  Yes you can order certs from before 1900.  The HSE site is for more recent certs.

Be sure to get a photocopy/research cert as they are only €4 and can be sent to you by email which speeds things up.
