Yes. I posted that information, I think, in reply #5 - in 2017
So we are on the same track  :)

Perhaps it was his own peculiarity. It would be interesting to see other marriages there by a different priest.

It’s good to go over things. Something new might come up.

St.Vincent's church is very near Goldenbridge cemetary, Goldenbridge House etc it must be the one.

St.Vincent's Industrial School is still known as Goldenbridge

I wonder if the crossing out of "Roman" is in some way connected with the politics of the Home Rule crisis.

The protestant unionists opposed Home Rule ... they wanted remote government from Westminster to continue ... and their campaign slogan was "Home Rule means Rome Rule". So I wonder if this was a case of a Catholic priest wanting to emphasise that being Catholic didn't mean being disloyal ...

If it is the correct church it's part of the convent which would explain why there is only a curate priest and no Parish priest listed in the house and building return. Curates usually lived with the PP.

It may also explain why Roman is crossed out, it wasn't a parish church.
That said getting married in a convent church seems odd.

Thank you Wexflyer and Heywood for responding to my post.  I attach a copy of the Wedding Certificate,  I cannot make out what the registrar's District was.  I see all bar my Grand Father marked their signatures with an X

I think upon scrutinizing the registrar's district it reads New Kilmainham, so I am just in the process of trying to locate that now.
