Presumably they were living in Lancashire? (Else why post on a Lancashire board?)
What timeline are you thinking of?
Any clues as to names?

Since 1912 until 1983, FreeBMD is showing 42 Moore/Kelly marriages in Lancashire! ;D
Garrad (Suffolk, Essex, Somerset), Crocker (Somerset), Vanstone (Devon, Jersey), Sims (Wiltshire), Bridger (Kent)

Warrington is shown as in Lancashire on this site. I know it is in Cheshire - but perhaps this is a different Warrington? If not, then perhaps it could be moved?

Warrington was historically in Lancashire. Geographically it is still in Lancashire. Warrington has not moved. The Government put Warrington into a different administrative unit in the 1970s. These administrative units did not replace counties. The 1974 set-up has altered again since. Warrington is currently in the ceremonial county of Cheshire. There are, apparently different types of county in England: historic, geographic, administrative, ceremonial, to name a few. If RootsChat and similar FH sites moved towns from one county to another each time the Government decided to re-arrange local government tiers, they'd be forever shuffling, and we'd be even more confused than we are now.  ;D The family history organisations and sites I am familiar with use the pre-1974 historic counties.
Edit. I just checked on English counties board on here. It's English counties as they were 1851-1901.
Ashton-under-Lyne, Stockport and Warrington are on both Cheshire and Lancashire boards. So you can be in Cheshire if you want to be, but only for ceremonial purposes.  Todmorden is on Lancashire and Yorkshire board. The county border used to go through the town.

We have to have some dates Clive - 1800's 1900's  ???? and what name is the father / groom - is it Kelly or moore ?   you need to put full names / dates down for us to help us .... :)
So do we presume that your Moore and Kelly family are in Warrington - St Elphins church Warrington are all on Lancashire Online Parish Records

 ???
How does Warrington relate to your question?
And you still haven't given any dates!

Are we looking at recent dates?
Early 1900s? 1800s? 1700s?

As I said - some clues would be helpful ;D

The Rathfriland you mention is that a place name or a house name in Warrington where your family lived?

Rathfriland is a town in County Down, Northern Ireland.

Is this you one you mean?
