And my initial inquiry was really about the Church of Golden Bridge, which I still haven't got anywhere with.

Ireland / Re: James Clarence Mangan

I read that anyone doing Mangan family history believe they are linked to the 19th century poet James Clareance. Does anyone know where James father was from? Is there a published family tree to see if ones Mangan roots are linked or not? Has anyone done any research in this area?

The only info I have is that he was born in 1803 and had two siblings.  He was the son of James Mangan, a grocer, and his mother was  Catherine Smith. Was his father from Shanagolden, Co Limerick?
I think you are quite right about the link to James C Mangan.  Apparently, my grandfather told all of his children that his Uncle was James Clarence Mangan.  We now realise he was probably telling one of his tall stories.

I think upon scrutinizing the registrar's district it reads New Kilmainham, so I am just in the process of trying to locate that now.

Thank you Wexflyer and Heywood for responding to my post.  I attach a copy of the Wedding Certificate,  I cannot make out what the registrar's District was.  I see all bar my Grand Father marked their signatures with an X

Hello,

I have just reignited my mother's family history search in Ireland - A cousin in the  USA asked me some questions and I came across a little bit of information that my Mother had managed to put together. Not a great deal and it is raising a lot of questions for me.

I found a copy of my Grandparent's marriage certificate, dated 1913. Married by Thomas Ryan at the Church of Golden Bridge, and yes Roman was crossed out.

I have tried googling Church of Golden Bridge, but am finding it hard to locate, does anyone have any information or photos of it for me please?  I feel a little bit stuck.
