Title: Looking for marriage records
Post by: justineh on Sunday 13 November 11 00:14 GMT (UK)

Of a William Rees and a Mary Fitzgerald in Cork around early 1830s.  Also the birth of their son John around 1832.  I know they went back to Wales but the Wales census says John was born out of country.  Any help would be much appreciated.

Kind regards

any idea which part of Co. Cork ?

For such an early marriage you will need to check for church records, so knowing their denomination and parish, or at least the area involved, would help your search.

RC records for parts of south west county Cork, and the parts of city are available (fee) on www.irishgenealogy.ie
