  • Hi Nancy, I see the baptisms and there are two Williams, 1841 and 1842 so the first chap must have died. Ann was baptised in early Jan. 1848, the father is Patrick, the marriage would take place usually in the brides parish and I cannot see on in a search. Usually the marriage entry will only include the witnesses and no parents.

    If Ellen was born in Rathkeale her baptism show be available as records commence in 1811, assume she was born in an adjoining parish.

    You can see the various parishes here and records available, not all there but most. https://registers.nli.ie/parishes/0857

    Good Luck
