Also it is not signed by Stephen, the Registar is copying out the information supplied by the person who conducted the marriage.

Oh okay...that's very odd then..why has she not said her father's real name? It's all very strange!

You don't know that she didn't, you think the girl in the census is her but she may not be, do you know she came from Dublin, the marriage gives where she was living at the time she married not where she is from.

Yes family members have said she came from Dublin. I'm 99% sure the girl in the census is her, my grandmothers name was Grace Frances, and as you can see, she has a sister called that.. it may indeed just be coincidence but I'm positive that is her...I'm wishing I never decided to research that side now! Lol its very weird. Also thankyou all for the help so far!

As you can tell I'm not very experienced at doing this kind of research, it's just fascinating learning family history,  I'll probably get the hang of it one day!

Patrick McIntyre is a Manager and traveller, Commercial Traveller on his death cert, Stephen is a labourer.
This isn't adding up?

No it really isn't, there's not much information I've got from my family members, they have said she was from Dublin, unless they are only doing the same as what I did? My grandmother died years ago  I cannot ask her. None of that side know much, but it's only what I was told. Nobody alive would have met her so there's nothing except what family say....its extremely puzzling and I'm thinking of just giving up lol

Have you tracked back from your mother to your grandmother, looking at your mother's birth certificate  who are the names of her parents as listed.

My mother's parents are Grace Frances Long, and James Joseph Hayden...my grandfathers side I've already researched, no problems like this with his...my nanny Grace is the difficulty!
