Athlone marriage circa 1879/80
« on: Monday 04 July 05 10:57 BST (UK) »
My Great Great Grandparents were married in Athlone.

Catherine Ann Brady, daughter of Philip Brady and Eliza nee Butler married Charles Hilton, solider based at Athlone barracks in circa 1879, 1880.

Their first born child, Charles was born in the middle of 1880 in a barracks in Essex, England.

How would I go about finding details of this marriage?

Any help would be very much appreciated

Regards

Louise

I have now received a copy of Charles’s wedding certificate from the GRO in Roscommon in Ireland.

He married Catherine Brady on November 3rd 1879 in the parish church of St Peter (Church of Ireland) in the town of Athlone by licence.

The witnesses were named R Galvin and another Galvin as far as I can tell.

Charles’ father is Charles Hilton, Printer
And Catherine’s father is Philip Brady, Hair Dresser

Charles is already a Sergeant in the RA living at the barracks in Athlone, Catherine doesn’t have a job and is living at what looks like Court Devonish, Athlone.
