Hi, Inga... You are the third person to contact me this week... 1877 must have been a good year! As I did for the others, I'll pull the photocopy again and scan it in for you. That way, you can see the marriage listing in its original form. I am so pleased that people are finding their ancestors!!! Since you're new, have you checked all the entries we've contributed from the Anglo-Celt and the Cavan Weekly News? Go to: http://www.irelandoldnews.com/ Several of us do the transcriptions, and you may find other listings. Good luck!
