Ballymena marriage RAINEY.
« on: Tuesday 03 October 17 14:52 BST (UK) »
This is my first step into Northern Irish records and I need some help please.  Helping a friend to find out the surname of her greatgrandmother who was the second wife and there may be a whiff of scandal.  I suggested a copy of her grandfather's birth certificate and not only are is there more than one registered in the same quarter and year but the GRONI requires the mother's maiden name, which is what we don't know!

It's possible that the above marriage of a William John Rainey is the second marriage and I'm hoping someone has access to this marriage registered in the Dec quarter 1883.

thank you
Sue

Thank you Sinann, I was hoping the bride's name would be Mary.

On the 1911 census James RAINEY is 21 and we think his birth date is 19 Jan 1890.  His siblings are Rebecca b1886 and Joseph b1888

The family are living in Lilliput St Duncairn.  Father William John 71 born Antrim, wife Mary 48 born Co Derry and married 27 years. 

William J's first marriage was to Jane McKeen in 1860.

Any help with this much appreciated.

Why don't you post a link to them on 1911 Census??
Give a man a record and you feed him for a day.
