1892 Marriage Lookup
« on: Tuesday 12 August 14 16:58 BST (UK) »
I am trying to find a marriage between an Alexander Jamison and a Mary Spratt, dated the 30th of September 1892 in Magherally, County Down.

Can someone assist me?

Thank you guys!  :)

Do Irish civil marriages not give the mother's maiden names? How might one find these out and go back another generation (or two)? What about ages when married?

I just found a transcription of the record on the Ulster Historical Foundation website but there aren't any mother's names or ages for the couple.

No, I'm afraid they don't.

You're into the territory of looking for civil births post 1864 or baptismal records before that.  In this case, since the marriage took place in 1892, there's a possibility of civil birth registration. The marriage record should include the fathers' occupations, which sometimes helps.

Edited to add:  Post any other information you have about them, eg. 1901 / 1911 census records (post the link to save us the bother).

Thank you Glensman, I will check into these further to see if they are linked to the George Jamison just found  :)
