If you mean the Robert Hamilton McCombs born 1900 then it's you'll probably need to search GRONI's database to look for a Northern Ireland marriage (online database only covers marriages 75 or more years old, otherwise you'll need to order a certificate from GRONI)- you'll need to register then purchase a few credits.

Is this his father?
McCombs Alexander of Tamlaght county Londonderry thatcher died 5 August 1936 Probate Londonderry 3 September to Robert McCombs shoemaker. Effects £6.

... Also if Robert Hamilton McCombs second wife Mary J’s marriage is regist red and which church did they marry at, I understand she was Catholic ...


GRONI online has the marriage registered in Cookstown district as Robert McCombs and Mary Maynes, it took place on 15 November 1932 and is available on a pay to view basis:

The information on civil certificates is standardised. See links on 1st post here for births, marriages and deaths-

Hi Elwyn. 

 Can I ask if Alexander is also buried at Tamlagh Parish Church.

Furthermore I understand Robert also had a daughter called Winifred, do you know when she was as born?


I don’t know if Alexander is buried in Tamlaght graveyard. There’s a transcript of the legible graves in Tamlaght Lower on this site. There’s no McComb listed but he might have been buried in an unmarked grave, or the stone may not be legible now.

http://www.oneirishrover.com/tamlaght-graveyard/

There are quite a few other graveyards in the area. Not all have been transcribed and not all are on-line. You may just need to go round them all and search.

Winifred’s birth was presumably in the 1930s or later. Births in Northern Ireland within the past 100 years are not generally available on-line. They are open to the public but just not on-line. There are 2 places with on-line access: PRONI & GRONI (both in Belfast). If you, or a researcher, can get there in person you can search for her birth there. Otherwise you would need to contact GRONI (by e-mail or by phone) and ask them to search for you. There may be a search fee in addition to the cost of the birth certificate. Contact details for ringing or e-mailing GRONI:

I think Gaffy & Aghadowey have already answered your other points.
