I am looking for the family history of this family. Their daughter Mary Fahey was my great grandmother.

Mary Fahey was born in 1858 (possibly Australia) and married George Cornelius Beilby in 1881 in Australia. I have no information on Mary's her parents other than their names.

Where did you initially find the parents of Mary as James FAHEY and Elizabeth GRAHAM? I can't see a birth of a daughter to George Cornelius BEILBY and Mary FAHEY.
Well if it is now John FAHEY we are searching
Perhaps her father or a relative..

What is Mary's age on the marriage cert? If this is the correct family Mary was possibly born c1862 and would have needed parental consent to marry in 1881.
Did Mary's father or legal guardian, give consent for her marriage to George?Death
