Melissa:

On your message posting from yesterday, your last comment stated that you found the parish where the parents were married. is Birr the parish and when was the marriage?

Roger McDonnell

HI Roger! Yes so it was Birr Parish , Offaly - 27 Nov 1895 

marriage or Rose Hanlon and John Bethell

There are two witnesses Richard Hamilton and Annie Connors but unsure if they are relatives or not. Not sure how that would have worked.

Melissa:

Here is a transcription of the civil record of the marriage which shows the names of the fathers of the bride and groom. The address for John Bethell is shown as Crinkle which is likely Crinkill in Birr civil parish.
