This was a wonderful addition to your website. It was interesting to see how things have changed and how descriptions have changed in 70 years.

Dear Eddie, That was a huge project! Thank you. I really appreciated being able to see the photo of the farm near Maghery - one of my Armagh places of interest.

Hi All In addition to adding several hundred more BMDs you may be interested in the transcription I have added of a book called "Ulster For Your Holidays". Written in 1930 by the then Ulster Tourist Development Association, Ltd., it contains some interesting little snippets and photos of the time. http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.com/~econnolly/oextracts.html Eddie News Extracts: http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.com/~econnolly/ My Genealogy: http://homepage.ntlworld.com/e.connolly/ ___________________________________________________________ Yahoo!

You might have to look a bit further for places within the Diocese. This INDEX gives Surnames and Given Names and Years, but it also gives aliases. Two examples from Armagh marriages: ALLEN William and Amelia JACKSON 1831 ALLEN aka DAVISON Sally and James BARNES aka BARON 1832 The first example shows my 2G grandparents, but I have been looking only for an Emily JACKSON as that is what has been recorded on her children's death certificates. So while the Index doesn't give parishes or townlands, it may help you with other information. Of course the Index is only part of the story as it won't contain marriages that resulted from Banns being called.

This Index to Church of Ireland diocesan marriage licenses is available through the LDS film library. There are 15 films available. They also say that licences were also issued to Catholics and other Protestants. I've recently read the film for Down & Dromore etc. It's number is 100867. The film for Armagh is 100859. Use one of these numbers to find the page with all the details.

These are extracts from the Marriage License Bonds of Down, Connor and Dromore 1721-1845 that I did at NAI Dublin when I was there. I have only extracted them for my interest in the surname SHAW but obviously they have the intended spouses listed as well so even if Shaw is not your research name you might still find one of yours as the spouse. If you do find one of interest there however, I have no idea what you do next as because none of them were mine I took it no further. You would have to ask the NAI.

What exactly is listed in the index? I know there will be bride and groom and date, but is an exact place given or is it just the diocese? I'm trying to narrow down some places for families that I know are in a particular diocese, but might be from one of a few places.

I have started putting the names of pupils in the National school register, for Loughbrickland, Aghaderg on my website, the film is a bit smudged and the dates of the register are not in order on the film, so i have started on the first one, i will be putting on names from 1863 to about 1910, These names will not come up on the website search engine till Monday, but you can view the names now by going to the Loughbrickland section of my website, and the best of luck in your research.

Shirley The reason I didn't give any more info. is because I don't have any more!. All of the documentation I have is that John McCONAGHY and Mary Ann McCAULEY were married in Belfast c1836. The date was calculated from Mary Ann's age at time of marriage, from her death entry (as was the place of marriage). I know it is not very much to go on but as you all know sometimes we have to start from the bare bones! If there were films available over here to scroll thru' I would do so. Any suggestions anyone?
