Hi everyone, I am looking help to find the marriage of James McCready and Agnes ??., they are on the 1901 census at William Street, Newtownards and in 1911 living at Castle Square, Bangor, also with is a Matilda Barbour as mother/grandmother, however I cant find a marriage of an Agnes Barbour to James McCready, if Barbour was her maiden name, can someone please help me find a marriage date for them.  Many thanks, Mabes.

The family is here in 1911 census- married 34 years so c1877-
http://www.census.nationalarchives.ie/pages/1911/Down/Bangor/Castle_Square/261350/
Matilda Barbour is listed as mother to head of household (James) so it's possible her latest husband had been a Mr. Barbour (she might have been previous married to a Mr. McCready or perhaps was unmarried when James was born).

There are several James McCready/Agnes ? marriages in Co, Down area (and Agnes could have been Nancy, Ann, Anne, etc.

Thank you for your reply Aghadowey, I know who James's mother was, deceased before James married, like you say it is stated in the 1901 census that she is grandmother, and in 1911 as mother.  I will try those other names though, as one of the daughters is called Annie.  Thanks once again, Mabes.
