  • Hello Ann Maree, Willliam married Margaret in 1877 and I found these details, both fathers were deceased. 

    Date of Marriage: 30-Apr-1877   Parish: TISCOFFIN Co. Kilkenny

    Husband                                                 Wife

    William Stapelton                            Margaret  Cuggy

    Address:              Kilfarney                              Webbsboro

    Occupation:        SERVANT                             FARMER

    Husband's Father                                    Wife's Father

    Name:  William Stapleton                   John Cuggy                 

    Occupation:        SERVANT                    FARMER

    Witness 1                                Witness 2

    Name:  Edmund Kower           Julia    Cuggy

    They appear to have been slow to register the children in the civil register even though there was a fine for late registration, I see the following children

    William 18th Jan 1894; Anne 2nd Jun 1890

    Honor or Honora or Norah; 2nd November 1889 (there is a note on this record that says name Kate married in 1920 to Michale Kealy

    Thomas 9th July 1887

    Mary 20th May 1885

    Bridget 2nd February 1883

    Edmund 25th Feb 1878

    Edward 11th May 1881 (Edmund may ahve died)

    All the baptism entries and civil records post 1864 should be available free on these sites, https://www.irishgenealogy.ie/en/ click on civil as the church records are not there for Kilkenny, you can search the parish registers by date only and then read. https://registers.nli.ie/ 

    The Stapleton name would be common enough in the area but Cuggy is very unusual.

    Good Luck
