    3. A bit of a puzzle here, iam familiar with the surnames from Kilkeel, but on sending for a copy of my great grandmothers birth certificate dated 1865, i see that Arthur Cunningham and john Wightmore were witnesses, the wedding was in Kilkeel Church of Ireland, my great grandmother was a Roman catholic, but turned again when her husband John Marks died, the problem here is , the name Wightmore can this be the well known Kilkeel name Wightman? i know a lot of the old documents make mistakes, and the name Wightmore does not come up in any of the Kilkeel records, any suggestions welcomed, Raymond, (in a cold and snowy Scotland)
