Marriage at Roscommon

I agree marriage to Catherine Devaney most likely took place in Roscommon. Basil also had a son James with Catherine Geraghty and it is his descendants who live in the area now

dawnsh, you star!

For information - this thread started as a search for a marriage between Basil SANDYS and Caroline GREENHILL which (although banns were read in Lambeth) never took place.

It has developed into a search for marriages of Basil SANDYS:
1) to Catherine DEVANEY (eldest daughter born c1826)
2) to Catherine GERAGHTY ?21 Sep 1837. (daughter born c1840).

If there were marriages they were most likely in Roscommon as there were local DEVANEY and GERAGHTY families.  The date 21 Sep 1837 for marriage (2) has no primary source attached.

Thank you for this link.

It seems that available marriage records start in 1838 (1 year too late!), no burials, baptisms from 1835.

So far the only SANDYS I have found in the baptisms is William sponsoring two baptisms.

Basil's father and father's siblings were baptised in St Peters Dublin (CoI) and his grandfather and 2xGt grandfather were High Sherriffs of Roscommon, so I would expect Basil to be CoI (I should have mentioned this - I apologise for the omission). 

The hunt goes on!

I have a reasonable amount of information about the SANDYS family prior to c1820, and at the moment I'm just searching for Basil's marriages c1820-1840.

I haven't got as far as tracking any descendants of his siblings or forebears in Roscommon.  I really do appreciate your searching, but until I sort out the marriages I'm stuck.
