John McGough, son of Owen and Catherine Dugan McGough, was married ca 1908, probably in Troy. I'm not positive yet that they are a Catholic couple. John told the census enumerator in 1910, Troy, that his parents were born in Ire.English which could indicate the Northern part which was basically Protestant. I know that there are many church in Troy. Is there an online site for marriages in Troy? I will go to Dept., of Health to get the exact date if I need to but I had hoped I could find this online.

Deanna, If you go to this link for the Troy Irish Genealogy Society webpages and look under "Mc", you'll see a listing for the marriage of John McGough to Mary Guinan on 17 February 1908. The record is in Volume One of the Marriage Index; page 15, record # 71. http://www.rootsweb.ancestry.com/~nytigs/MarriageIndexPaget.htm Toward the bottom of this page there is a link to print a form to request a copy from the Rensselaer County Clerk's Office. The cost is $5.
