Hi Linda
Thank you so much for taking the time to help me out ,did they live in mell?
Kevins email has been removed so i can't contact him.
When you get back please have a chat with him,maybe he will be able to fill me in on Thomas .I need to find out if Thomas and Agnes are buried in St Peters r/c cemetery with Mary ,plot 503.I have emailed St Peters they have not replied so far.
Your information has been most helpful,it was so kind of you.
I have been looking for information on Thomas and Mary (my grandparents ) for months.

Kind Regards
Estee

I have found Mary's marriage on Family Search her maiden name was spelt McGOWRAN,the page no and vol match Thomas Campbell,i have someone checking this  out for me.
On the Church Marriage Record her maiden name is spelt McGowan,They were married 4th July 1896 in Drogheda,only parents surnames were recorded.Witness was James Evers and Matilda McEvoy.
