Don't know if this will help find the marriage family search has baptism of following children born to Thomas surname DIGNUM & Catherine WELDON

John 4/8/1871 St Mary’s Meath
Thomas  19 Sep 1873  Meath, Ireland
Laurence  24/2/1876 Meath
Mary Agnes  11/8/1878 Meath

1901 Irish census surname DIGNAM

20.2 in Platin Road (Westgate, Drogheda No. 3., Louth
Thomas 26 Head Cattle Drover
Laurence 24 brother Lab.
Alice 19 sister Linen Weaver
Kate 17 sister
All single, born Co. Meath, Roman Catholic, cannot read

The marriage year was 1868

This is the closet I've got surnames similar but not exact   ???

Can't say whom married Catherine  ???

The 1868 one fo rThoams Deignan married Catherine Whelan is right.  But could there be a mistake with Whelan and Weldon

Some women was talking to me before.  She remembers Laurence Dignam and lived with the family but she never remember Alice.  This was before 1941.  Would you say Alice died before this time.  If none of the family know about her and its hard to find her death cert

There is no children for this couple.  The closed is Thomas Dignam and Catherine Weldon.  It could be the same because on that marriage cert his fahters name is JOhn Dignam and his first son is John Dignam
