The church records may have been destroyed (perhaps after being sent to Dublin for safekeeping) but the civil marriage record should survive.


sorry for the delay. I checked the civil records on http://pilot.familysearch.org/recordsearch/start.html#p=collectionDetails&c=fs%3A1584964 (this was advised by the boards)

I only found the two baptisms of John's children (Wm John & Arthur) I could not trace John's parents.
Do you have any other suggestions where to look?

Many thanks

The marriage certificate should list the fathers' names and occupations.

Where would I find the marriage certificates? The records in Slavin church were destroyed to my knowledge anyway.

Hi

Could anyone help me? I'm looking up my family history and I gt as far back as John Ovens (1856? - 1929) m Margaret Dundas (1857 - 1923)

I've been trying to find John's parents, which I guess could be called Arthur & Ellen (Nellie) but I'm not sure. I've found his children in the 1901/1911 census.

John and Margaret married in Slavin C.O.I and were buried there along with Margaret's Parents. I can't seem to find anything on John's Parents, where they were buried or lived.. I'm assuming around the same area.

Any help would be appreciated
