Marriage help wanted St Johns Limerick city
« on: Thursday 12 May 16 21:03 BST (UK) »
Hi
I have found a marriage entry for 12 /04/ 1845 Bernard Corcoran & wife in St Johns Limerick city. Can anyone tell me it there would be more info in the original register such as: if of the parish, if bachelor/widower/spinster, who were the witnesses, parents etc? as I don't know parents as yet for either bride or groom.
Thanks in advance for your time.

wow that was fast! Thank you Hurworth does it say witness Michael Moloy? & Joanna Duffy.by W.  What does the W mean?
The copy i had was really hard to read couldn't see any details abt witnesses so thanks.
He was in the Artillary so probably stationed there. Winess names dont seem to be family. Thank again for your help most kind.

Do you have any other information about the happy couple and how you found your way back to them?

I don't think it's a W, looking back through earlier pages I think it's Ao, the o written small at the top of the A, haven't figured out which priest it is yet.

Hello thank you guys for your help. They weren't from Limerick as far as I know but both from cork. As yet I have no parents for either of them and was hoping for a clue from Marriage but it doesn't look like it. Bernard was possibly in Limerick with his artillery regiment.
From Bernard's military records it says he was born 1824 Cobh on sea, Cork,I have yet to find his birth or that of his bride who was also from cork abt 1828. They had one child John baptized 1847 Dublin then moved to England and had 4 more children. I never found Bernard after 1851 census but his wife & children stayed in the Greenwich area. Bernard possibly left the family after 1857 and dissappears  a without trace.
Thanks again
