Can anyone please help regarding my 2x great grandmother's maiden name, Keappock also recorded as Capogue/Kappick/Cappock/Kappock/Kappick. Mary Keappock was born circa 1840, I've found a baptism listed at Knockbride, County Cavan. Parents John Keappock and Ann McHenry. Mary married John Duffy, marriage must have took place in Cavan as their first 2 children were born in Ireland before they moved to Liverpool just before 1871 census. Any information relating to the family/marriage would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you.

Have you got the birth Certs of the children born in Ireland?
Their births would narrow down the date of the marriage.

If children were born 1864+ try

What religion were they? Civil registration of non-Catholic marriages started 1845 but from 1864 for Catholic marriages. If they were Catholic and married in Ireland before 1864 there will not be a civil record of the event and you'd need to see if a church record survives.

Good evening, the first two children that appear on the 1871 census of Liverpool, England state that they were born in Ireland, the rest of the children were born in Liverpool. First two children were born before 1863.
Thanks.

Children's names and ages, it world make sense to find their baptisms first.

I'm struggling to read these registers, is there no way to find entries via surnames?

If you have a sub to Ancestry and/or Find My Past you can use their search, if not you can still use their search but will not be able to see the record or the parish only the county but using the date you can than look at the NLI register to find it.
Be wary of transcription errors.
