I knew that my grandparents were married in one church in New Yrk nd they tore it down.  But there is a book of all churches and Priest and when records are sent somewhere else they tell you that.  Do you know the name of the original church?  I will try to help you.  Jackie Sullivan ----- Original Message ---- From: Janet Crawford <reojan@gmail.com> To: irl-cork@rootsweb.com Sent: Tue, September 14, 2010 2:24:14 PM Subject: Re: Irish citizenship questions Pat, Dublin is somewhat forgiving re missing records. See if you can find a newspaper announcement of the marriage and an application for a marriage license with NY State.

Hi, Jackie, May I ask you to look up a couple of records for me? I'm looking for the marriage of: Thomas Reed, b. Ireland- (parents, Thomas Reed and Catherine??) to Catherine Pendergast, b. Ireland-(parents, William Pendergast and Catherine O'Rourke). The marriage year would be 1854-1856, probably in Cambridge, Jackson, or White Creek, NY. I know St. Pat's was in Cambridge, but was served by the circuit rider priests for several years -not sure about Jackson and White Creek. The other record would be the marriage of Thomas Behan to Catherine Reed (sister of young Thomas Reed, above), supposedly at St. Pat's. Marriage year would be between 1855 and 1858. St. Pat's in Cambridge does not have these records -would love to know where they are kept!! Thanks, Ann
