That Mary Brougham 1867 marriage was to a Christopher Woods not Thomas Shannon - his was just one of 4 possible grooms names.

That Thomas Shannon married Catherine Murray.

Give a man a record and you feed him for a day.
Teach a man to research, and you feed him for a lifetime.

There is a John Shannon born Dublin South 1870 and another Rathdown 1869 both could be possible, have you got either of these certs?

If not I would order them but ask only to be sent either one or both only if the father is Thomas.

1870

1869

He said on the census he was born Dublin City so I'd be more inclined towards the 1870 one.

Rathdown is a registration district in Dublin.

Oh forget the 1870 one, looks like his father is John

Back to the 1892 marriage so.
Does the Civil cert say where they married?
