Payne family from Duleek

Thanks, I think you have the right Catherine Callan.

I think  they may have left Ireland by the time they married in 1926 as it seems it took a few years before the marriage was noted.

If many of the family  moved to England have you consider that Mark PAYNE may have done so also and died there?

thank you myluck

Trawling through the civil registers, I found Mark Payne's death in Duleek 31 Jul 1908, under the transcribed name of Maur Pain.  On the image it says Main Pain, which seems to be the name he went by in the army (see the other thread on armed forces board).  His son James, registered his death. His age ties up with his age at enlistment. born c Aug 1836 St Nicholas Galway.

The marriage does not appear to be registered either on Irish Genealogy or Family Search.

That's because the notation was made against the wrong baptism. Catherine Callan actually married Thomas Sampson 26 Apr 1922, Thomas Sampson was the name below John Payne.

We came across the same mistake in another topic here a while back until someone noticed same that it was meant for baptism above the one we were researching.
