Hi
I am trying to trace the parents of a couple who marry at Killea Co. Waterford in 1864. They are James Fitzgerald who was a carpenter from Tramore and Mary Anne Duffin (sometimes see her as Duffon but I put that down to being misspelt). I am assuming Mary was from the Killea area and that is why the marriage took place there. I am aware they had a least one child Mary Anne Fitzgerald. Does anyone know of these families and if so share information, please.

I presume you have Mary Ann Fitzgerald birth which was 9th June 1869 address Summerhill Tramore Co Waterford. Father JOHN not James mother Mary Anne formely Duffin.
If you have the Civil Marriage Cert for John & Mary ann marriage it should have their fathers names.
Also if you need to check for other births/marriages/deaths for the couple & children www.irishgenealogy.ie Civil Records

Thank you all for your input. I now have the fathers of both. Problem is Fitzgerald is a common name so makes the work a bit more laborious. Not quite as common is Duffin. I am pretty sure the Duffon shown is misspelt.
