Title: Long form Marriage cert 1901.
Post by: SAMYJAY on Thursday 19 January 12 22:31 GMT (UK)

Hope somebody can help.
If I apply for a long form marriage cert for 1901 Co Louth Ireland would the mothers name be on the cert.

No. Irish marriage certificates only have the fathers names.

If it's an RC marriage, the parish register should have the mother's name.

The 1901 register no marriages in Clogherhead Co Louth are not in the national library. So looks like I will have to go to the Church, but I was hoping I would not have to do that.

Thanks everybody for your help.
