Durham Lookup Requests / Re: 1876 Marriage
« on: Thursday 11 April 24 09:22 BST (UK)  »
Huge thank you everyone for all your help, yes , I did find Patrick Henry age 20 in Gateshead in 1871,
(re him working for the same chemical firm for 35 years) You have given me very helpful suggestions, such as the local to me LDS family history centre, and Free BMD index......it is back to the drawing board for me.....another thing Mary said on the 1911 census was that they had been married for 35 years, and so I counted back making it 1876, for the wedding, but Patrick died in 1908 so perhaps I should have been counting back from that year ?!!!

Durham Lookup Requests / 1876 Marriage
« on: Wednesday 10 April 24 15:49 BST (UK)  »
Hi, Is anyone able to help me please? Trying to find a Marriage which I believe took place in Gateshead Durham, in 1876, all nine of their children were baptised in St Josephs Catholic Church, beginning  registered Jan 1877 through to Jan 1895 the couple were Patrick Henry b Abt 1851 and his wife  Mary O'Neill  b1852 they were both from Londonderry Northern Ireland, but Mary stated on the 1921 census she was from Greenlough, Londonderry, I have exhausted (I think) all the Ireland avenues but as yet drawn a blank. I have recently contacted Tyne and Wear Archives, but its not happening quickly enough.......probably got a backlog of enquiries, any suggestions/help would be much appreciated.  Thank you.

Hello Mike, I am so sorry(again) made a faux pas pressed a wrong button and lost your pm this morning, I am so excited at the information you have been able to give me too, I had read it, feeling like I can see the light at the end of this  dark tunnel.  You can tell it has been along time since I last used Roots chat, tried to retrieve your pm but no joy

I have not been able to find one in the UK either, I am quite baffled......all their children were born in Gateshead Durham and baptised at the same church

PS,  I made a mistake and quoted Ann twice on the communication I just sent, the marriage certificate say's Mary Ann,  but Patricks wife is most definitely a Mary,  I have found a birth certificate of a Mary O'Neill born in June 1852 in Greenlough but I cannot be sure if I have the right one?   Julie

Hi, Thank you for replying, No, the only marriage certificate I have been able to find is on 11th Sept 1878 between Mary Ann O'Neill age 22 years and Patrick Henry age 24 years, in Belfast, both sets of parents living in Belfast.........I am sure it not theirs, as on the 1881 census they were both living in Gateshead Durham and Patrick said he was 30, and Ann 28..... Patrick on all the census forms usually only stated he was from Ireland, but he did say Derry on a couple, Ann on the 1921 census actually said Greenlough, ?!!!do hope you can help I am trying hard to work my way back from Ireland with DNA connections, it would be much simpler if I can work from the start.    Julie

Hi, I am not quite sure how to join in this link, but I am particularly interested in the 0'Neill's one in particular a Mary O'Neill that married a Patrick Henry in 1876,  Mary said she came from Greenlough Derry on one of the census forms, and in 1921 said she was 68 years and 6 months, I just  can not seem to get over the starting line with this couple, Patrick only ever said he was from Derry,.... I have altered their birthdays and parents that many times?!!!! Another name that jumped out at me on this link was McAtamney marrying an O'Neill, spelling was slightly different, but I have a 2-3 cousinship with a McAtamney, but it is the O'Niell and Henry combination I really want to get to grips with they settled in Gateshead Durham UK
Please can anyone help?
