I am looking for birth and marriage certificates for Agnes McWhinney, father William(?), mother unknown. She was born possibly in Belfast on July 10, 1861. She married James Fulton (From Donaghadee in Down County) in 1884, and came to the US that same year. They settled in Mansfield, Minnesota.

You won?t get a birth certificate for Agnes if she was born in 1861 as they hadn?t started in Ireland then. (They started in 1864). You might find her baptism record if you know her denomination and the church she attended. The UHF site has an Agnes Mawhinney baptism for 1862, father William, in Co Down.

Mawhinney is a more common version of the surname in ireland than McWhinney.
Bear in mind that many parish records are not on-line.
Can?t see the marriage listed. No-one named James Fulton married in Ireland in 1884 at all, never mind to Agnes.
