Marriage St. Nicholas Church, Galway, 1818 - Brandish to Toomey
« on: Sunday 14 December 25 15:25 GMT (UK) »
I have in my family tree a marriage between William Brandish and Margaret Toomey on 23 June 1818 and at one time I had not only found the entry of such a marriage but had printed a copy of it.  Now quite a few years later I can find neither the entry nor my printed copy which seems to have got lost in house moves and computer upgrades!

I wonder if anyone can access the necessary records to find this and either let me know where I can find it or at least let me know the source. I noticed under the resources for Galway here on RootsChat that church records were mentioned so I followed the link to St. Nicholas Collegiate Church but I only get an error code.

I recorded this marriage on my family tree at the time so I'm sure it did exist!

Thanks for any help.

Looks like RootsIreland has transcripts for this parish. Subscription site.

I can’t see images of the register anywhere.

The link didn’t quite work, choose Galway West from the drop down list.

St. Nicholas Catholic Galway is on the NLI wbsite as several separate parishes, St. Nicholas South & West, St. Nicholas North etc. - no sign that I could see of that marriage in any of these.

If the marriage was church of Ireland then it might be included in RootsIreland - there's also a Church of Ireland St. Nicholas in Galway, and they seem to cover transcript for that time.
