The transcript is on Find my Past, St Ignatius, Wishaw, but sadly no mothers’ names included.
I am so disappointed!

Hi,

We believe that the marriage took place in the Roman Catholic Church that was in park street, Motherwell.

It’s a pleasure. You can click to get the original record page too.
It does seem as though there is no explanation for the name.
You would think that the marriage information would be true as Michael would have given it.

However, if the death is the same person who married Margaret Fearns/Ferns/Ferin, and this can be traced to a birth it complicates matters and at the moment, no explanation.

Hi, I’m just wondering if anyone could help.

Im trying to find out more about John Curran. He died in 1885 in Mullaghglass. He was married to Mary Regan (unsure what year), who he had multiple children with, including Michael Curran.
Michael Curran was born in 1868 in Mullaghglass and came to Scotland where he married Margaret Ferns in 1890. He died in 1939. Mary Regan was listed as his mother on his birth and death certificate but on his marriage Bridget Clarkin was registered as his mother. I’ve tried to find out who she is but had no luck, so just wondering if anyone can help with who she was and who John Currans parents were.

Thanks

Just a point that the marriage took place in 1891 not 1890, on 24/9/1891 according to the marriage found by heywood.  I just think we have done some thing really basic like confuse people with the same name.....perhaps the marriage records that I found of a Michael Curran dying in the US in 1921 born 1856 should be looked at to make sure there is no crossover.
