Post by: RoseUK on Monday 20 August 12 18:26 BST (UK)

Please can someone check who Samuel Swaile married in June 1880 in Downpatrick? I know he later on had a son also called Samuel.

Thanks.

Civil registration index (www.familysearch.org) shows married for Samuel Swail Apr./June 1880 Downpatrick registration district volume 1 page 589. Elizabeth McGrath on same page but also an Eliza Jane Dorrian.
Emerald Ancestors has the marriage listed (you can purchase credits to view) but using the free search the bride is shown as Elizabeth.

Hi,
   Aghadowey is correct, the bride was Elizabeth mcGrath. The marriage took place in Portaferry Roman Catholic Church on 2 Jun 1880. The fathers' names were John Swail and Henry McGrath.
