Looking for great grandads marriage

[bevj]

This may not be of any help but familysearch also has the following record:

Samuel Sloane married Mary Barnett in Co. Down on 17th March 1852.
Samuel's father's name was Nicholas. I would think it's a possibility that Samuel was one of your Nicholas's siblings and their father was also a Nicholas.

Thanks everyone for help, I appreciate it all. Still not found my way around this site yet but will keep practicing. Does anyone know how I can find out which church and if the records are available. Thanks

Hi Sloanequest and welcome to Rootschat. You will find your way round eventually, we were all in the same boat at one time.

I think that records for Roman Catholic churches could have been kept at the church of the marriage, baptism etc, but sometimes if there was more than one Catholic church in the district, records for the whole parish could have been kept at one of them.

It really would be worthwhile you having a look at Rootsireland, which is where I got the information so far. It seems there is a document for the 1858 marriage but you would have to pay. I have no credits at the moment. I would post an enquiry on the Co. Down board if I were you. I have put a link on that board to this thread for you.

Hi,
   According to the Ulster Historical Foundation Nicholas SLOAN and Hannah Burns were married in 1858 in Co. Down. It is a pay to view site to obtain any further information. See https://www.google.co.uk/#q=Ulster+Historical+foundation
