Belfast marriage look-up please
« on: Tuesday 08 March 11 09:19 GMT (UK) »
I am looking for the marriage of David Leo Collins to Hannah. It was roughly around 1902, give or take a few years. In the 1911 census in Ireland, he is shown as a plasterer and she was a weaver.
I've never posted a look-up here before so I hope I've done it right! Thank you!

Have you checked the civil registration index yet? It's online (free) and the marriage is there-
the nearest I could see for David Collins is July/Dec.1902 Castleblayney district

Here's the 1911 census entry but all born in Belfast- says married 7 years so married c1904 not 1902:

Away sorting out DNA matches... I may be gone for some time many years!

Oh that is brilliant, thank you. I was looking for Hannah's maiden name. I did have a look at Family Search but it's very confusing!
Thanks so much everyone  :)
