Looking for the Parish that Peter Marshall & Jane Bell came from & were married in. Peter Marshall born abt 1804. Jane Bell born abt 1805. They lived in the Dublin area. Possibly married in County Wicklow, 4 Oct 1830. By 1835 the family was in the USA. Any information on the family is greatly appreciated. rebeccaball@sbcglobal.net

Rebecca:
The subscription site Roots Ireland has an October 4 1830 marriage record for Peter Marshall and Jane Bell in the Wicklow town Church of Ireland church. Actually, Roots Ireland had two records: one showing Peter Marshall and Jane Bell and the other with Peter Bell and Jane Marshall. I assume the second record was a mistake. Presumably, Jane Bell was from Wicklow town.
I looked for baptismal records for children of the couple but did not find a record. I also looked for baptismal records for Peter and Jane, The only record I could find for Peter Marshall was in 1806 in Co. Offaly. There were a number of Jane Bell records around 1805. The records were in Co. Down, Co. Donegal and Co. Cavan. The only Co. Wicklow record was a January 1 1809 baptismal record for a Jane Bell with father James Bell and mother Margaret Hobb. This record was in the Castlemacadam C of I parish.
Let me know if you have any questions.
