Hi, Don't have anything on the marriage, but the "Burial Records of the Church of England Cemetery" (Thorne Ave., Saint John), published 1987 by Lennox Bagnell include the following burials. Andrews, Jane, Widow 1 Nov. 1847 48 yrs Andrews, Joseph 7 April 1879 35 yrs Rev. Armstrong, St. Marks - buried in the Poor ground Andrews, Joseph 15 May 1880 Removed from Poor Ground to rural Cemetery (now Fernhill) There are a few other Andrews burials there, but not many. The records of Brenan's Funeral Home (online at PANB website) include a Joseph Andrews from Ireland who was a doctor - same one?? Have you looked at Dan Johnson's "Vital Statistics From New Brunswick Newspapers" online also at the PANB site?
