Im have difficulty locating a marriage record for a Florence Linnane to a Peter O'Reilly circa 1920s, possibly in Dublin?
The variations of the spelling of both surnames may be the problem, but I believe Florence's father was a 'drummer', possibly x British army, as they lived in the 'army houses' in the Leeson st area?
Peter was originally from Cavan born circa 1893mand the address for Lwr Leitrim rd between Mullagh and Baliborough was mentioned.
Peter was believed to have been in the IRA and would later become a Sgt in the Gardai where he was presented in 1926 with the gold Scott Medal (the 3rd Garda to receive it)
Florence died in 1967 aged 61, but it's Peter's early life that I'm interested in, perhaps someone with access to early garda files/archives may turn up some early info?
any help would be really appreciated
