  • Nancy,

    I think the marriage you are probably looking for was between James Castles and Mary Fea. It was registered in Armagh City in 1849 Volume 1, page 322. Order a copy of it to get the addresses, fathers name etc, which may enable you to trace the line back further.

    You can order a photocopy from GRO Roscommon for ?4 per certificate. Put the place, year, quarter (where there is one), volume & page number on the application form (anywhere). http://www.groireland.ie/ You have to post or fax the form to them but they will e-mail the copy certificate to you if you wish. Put ?please e-mail to?..? clearly on the top of the form.

    Tradition was to marry in the bride?s church (which will normally be on the certificate) and so that would be the place to look for her baptism and that of any siblings.

  • A further option for viewing the marriage cert (instantly) has become available since 2013. You can view the original certificate on-line on the GRONI website, using the “search registrations” option:

    https://geni.nidirect.gov.uk

    You will need to open an account and buy some credits. It costs £2.50 (sterling) to a view a certificate.
