Title: Marriage Londonderry
Post by: tomctaylor on Saturday 21 March 09 11:34 GMT (UK)
Can anyone help with this? I'm looking for a marraige between Robert Simpson and Margaret Boutcher (Butcher) about 1865 possible in the Roe Valley area.

Thanks in advance.

the Irish BMD Civil Index is available on familysearch at : http://pilot.familysearch.org/recordsearch/start.html#c=1408347;p=2;t=searchable

(Catholic marriage registration started in 1864, non Catholic marriages were registered from 1845.)

there's a few possible Robert Simpson marriages but I dont see an immediate cross match for Margaret.

Here is the entry from the Emerald Ancestor subscription website http://www.emeraldancestors.com/search/marriages/viewdetails.asp?ID=10232

Date of Marriage 12 Aug 1875
Groom Name robert SIMPSON
Bride Name margaret BUTCHER
Church Aghanloo Church of Ireland
Parish Aghanloo
Civil District Newtown Limavady
County Londonderry

The best way to get full details is to phone Limavady Borough Council, Registrar's Department.  With the date and place of the wedding they should be able to send you all details from the certificate.  Most councils charge a small fee of around £3 or £4 for this.
