Title: Leahy/Leahey/Lahey/Lahy family
Post by: angle73 on Sunday 11 June 23 17:18 BST (UK)
Hi
I am looking for the marriage of Jeremiah Leahy(possibly John J) and Mary Barry. I believe they married in Ireland. Their children were John,Mary,James,(Honora,Jeremiah,twins)Patrick and Bartholomew.

I would be grateful for any help
Thank You

Their first child was born 1837 and their last 1854 so I assume they married sometime between these dates

Thanks

If they married in Blackrock parish, you will see there is a gap in marriages 1811 - 1832 which might be relevant to your search.

Sorry, I had the wrong year in mind looking for the marriage.
I see John born 1837, Blackrock.

I had 1832 in mind before - sorry - but when  you look at marriages for Blackrock, there are gaps around the time you would need if they married prior to the 1837 birth which you would imagine would be correct.

I came across a marriage in 1850 Blackrock, Cork was listed as John J Leahy but there was no details of date, church ,parents, so not sure if it's them. Can anyone shed any more light on this please.
thanks

I would think that they married around the time of their first born child. You say that this is John b 1837.
Ancestry gives the date as 20th November 1837 but searching for this in Catholic NLI ddn’t work.
However, if you look at this double page, the first entry is August 1st and the bottom of the  facing page is John’s entry.

As I mentioned before, there are various gaps and, as I have just found, incomplete records and indexes.

may i ask if any sense of Sarah Leahy, Lacey, Leary etc married Laurence/Lawrence/Lorcan Duffy around 1830 and had a son James Joseph Duffy 1832/33 (known) before either or all left for Cobourg Ontario Canada.? Possibly Monoghan region or Enniskillen region.
