Dear Clare,
I am pleased to finally say I have my grandparents marriage certificate (a copy). I know now John O'Brien 24 yrs was a Tailor like his Father Michael, and that Maria Curran 18yrs was home duties (her father Matthew was a blacksmith). He lived in Chapel (looks like) griound Arklow and she lived in a place called Rustigath Woodenbridge. I have found what seems to be Chapel Ground, but cannot seem to find this Rustigath or any thing like it in Woodenbri--e. I can't understand the writting very well. Are you able to shed any light on this or point me in the right direction. Its all getting very exciting.
thank you & your team for helping me so far. cheers Lynda

Lynda:
Clare is working on our new web site and is not able to respond to messages at this time. I think your townland is likely Rostygah townland which is in Arklow civil parish.
