I'm still seaching for the marriage of James Regan to Sarah (Sally) Kerrigan (or Karigan) from Mayo. Dunno the date though but they were in Preston with several kids in 1851.

If they got married in Ireland it is well before the start of civil registration of marriages so you will have to search for church records, if they exist.
Away sorting out DNA matches... I may be gone for some time many years!

Trouble is there are lots of churches in Mayo and I would have no idea where to start hunting. I just thought I would chuck in a wild card with the names in case someone had such inside info that had researched this root before

Needle in a haystack I think.

Cheers anyway.
