Francis marriage certificate was just emailed to me

Francis Rivier age 23 Pianist -son of Eugene Rivier - stockbroker and Edna River (Adendoph)

Marriage dissolved 26 May 1938

Interesting. Denis Corri's father, Eugene Alfred Corri was a Stockbroker and famous Boxing referee. His step-mother's name was Edna Warendorph (not far phonetically from Adendoph). And one of Eugene Alfred Corri's ancestors was Domenico Corri a music composer who migrated from Rome -Edinburgh - London

I think Dennis has given the game away by listing those names for his parents on the marriage reg  ::) The only way to confirm further would likely be through DNA testing now.

I can see this tree www.ancestry.co.uk/family-tree/person/tree/51422557/person/152427139170/facts  You likely have seen this or be connected with it?

chinapaddy, am I right in thinking that Dennis's grandfather, Patrick Constantine Corri, was also a noted Vocalist?

Monica

in 1871 UK Census, Patrick Constantine Corri lists his occupation as 'Professor of Music'. I see Francis Rivier lists his occupation as 'Pianist'. Dennis's Great Grandfather Haydn Joseph Lewis Corri was Organist at Dublin's Pro Cathedral for more 30 years. My Profile pic is a Portrait of Dennis's GGgrandfather Domenico Corri
Dennis Corri is my 2nd cousin twice removed

Have you come across this info here https://collections.ed.ac.uk/art/record/19684?highlight=*

Always good to see images of who you are researching I think.

Certainly a musical dynasty it seems.

Your avatar, is this Domenico Corri (father of Hayden, grandfather to Patrick Constantine)?

Added: Sorry, see you have made a note on this above.

What a talented and fascinating life they have must led  :)

Indeed. Haydn Corri was son of Domenico (my Portrait pic).
