Marriage/Death Look Up Please

[willegofar]

Great Grand Parents,Micheal + Mary Smith lived in Straide,Co.Mayo
Mary is buried in Straide cemetary,died aged 49yrs,stone erected by her husband Micheal.
No other details on head stone.
So when did they marry and where?
And is Micheal Smith buried elsewhere or is he buried alongside his wife and the headstone was never engraved with the info of his death.
We know he was alive in 1911 (census) aged 67 in Cloonconlon,Straide.Living in the same household as his Daughter Bridget and her two young daughters Mary and Catherine(Katie).
Any help would be most appreciated.
Kind Regards
Willegfar(John)

Hi Shane,don't know the year of her death or year of birth.
The only info as i said was that she died aged 49.

this looks like the best match for her death on the civil index :

 Name: Mary Smith
 Registration district: Castlebar
 Record type: Death
 quarter / year: Jul - Sep 1896
 Age: 49           (Est. birth year: 1847)
 volume: 4 / Page: 65

I'd say the next step is to find Mary's maiden name by searching for the birth cert for Bridget, then a cross match search could be done to locate the marriage.

the civil index is available at : http://pilot.familysearch.org/recordsearch/start.html#c=1408347;p=2;t=searchable

you can order certs from the GRO using the index details above - www.groireland.ie
