Link: Ordering Certs from GRO Roscommon

[MaggieTag]

Hi,

I would like to order a marriage cert from Roscommon. I have the date - 4 Feb 1850 -  and district - Coleraine, Derry -and the names of the bride and groom. Is this enough for a €4 copy from the register? And would this give all the usual info ie residence, religion, and Fathers names and occupations?

Cheers,

Margaret

That sounds like an extracted record. You need to locate the references on the Index record to order a cert without requiring a search :

  Name
  Record Type (e.g. marriage)
  Registration District
  Year/quarter (early records just just have a year)
  Volume No.
  Page No.

for notes on the details a research cert will show - see :
   Details included on a Marriage Cert

If you post the names I'll try to locate the references for you...

Since the marriage took place in the Registry Office there will be no clues as to religion of either party.

Hi Shane,

as far as I know the price hasn't changed.

As long as you provide the references, as above, and ask for a research cert - that's the cost
