Hi Julie - Do you know in which Irish county or province the couple married? Can't answer your question, but below is a list of locations in Ireland in which both of your surnames appeared in the same civil parish during the Primary Valuation (1848-64), per the surname search engine at www.ireland.com/ancestor/ That is the case if your spellings are correct, as there are several variations in spelling of both of those surnames. Most often individuals married someone in their own parish. Clare Cork Cork city Laois Limerick Limerick city Tipperary Waterford You can check that webpage for more on your surnames in Ireland. Unusual, in that Patrick is considered to nearly always be a Catholic name and Alice nearly always a Protestant name. J.

Hi Julie - You might want to check out the marriage at www.familysearch.org for a Patrick AHEARN and an Alice BURKE on 31 Jan 1864, Kilbrien, Co. Waterford. His father Thomas AHEARN. Her father William BURKE. I would suggest you keep it for a possibility. See if you come up with any children for this couple. Check and see if you can find out more. If the correct couple, they likely would have had a son named William early in their marriage, but perhaps he died. Exact spelling of names on records notorious for often being incorrect. Does Waterford "ring a bell" in your FH?
