I can't get the attachment small enough to post so you'll just have to take my word that I have the information from the parish register of Oristown, Meath.  Sounds to me like you think I'm making it up >:(

Well, I can't see that you've given any more detail about the marriage after reply #18 either  :-\  We are all trying to help so I don't think it's unreasonable to ask for details of information you've already found especially in this case where it's not been possible to find the marriage in the civil index.
Away sorting out DNA matches... I may be gone for some time many years!

If this link works you should be able to see it on the right hand page
http://registers.nli.ie/registers/vtls000635215#page/55/mode/1up
Film 04186/03
Which says only baptisms but has marriages 1848 - 1880

I tried the Civil Registration for several of the names on that page and I haven't found any yet.
Not that they are easy to read!
Is Navan the correct district?

The marriage took place in Oristown, Meath which I assume is the bride's parish.

I will try to crop the image I have downloaded for this marriage and post it here.

I have resized the image but it's probably too small to see now ???

Not bad :)

You can clearly see the marriage on 25 July 1867.

Did the link to it I posted in Reply #38 not work?
