Can we see a bit more of the marriage record, please?

Maybe you could attach a URL link.

I think the residences may be Rathmackin, generally listed as Ramackan, which is in Termonmaguirk civil parish Omagh registration district , cant make anything out on the dispensary district, nothing similar that I see in that area.

I see it as Ra/th/mackan too.

I'm not sure why the the 'th' didn't appear initially - sticky keys or something :-\

Any ideas on the chapel name?

Thanks for the help!

The name of the Catholic parish for that area north of Six-mile-cross is 'Ballintacker' which looks a little like the chapel location.

Marriage found in Ballintacker/Beragh register - same details. The main church seems to have been at Beragh, as far as I can see the other church was near Drumnakilly
