Looking for any information on my ggg-grandparents, William Henry NEALON/Neilan(Ireland family unkown) and Mary LYNCH. Married14 Feb 1844 per RC Records: "William Neilan of Kilmurry to Mary Lynch (Michael) of Cartyfree married in her father's house in presence of her father, John Neilan & Matilda Purtill". I know nothing of Wm's family, who is John NEILAN(?), father or brother? Mary's mother was possibly "Maggie" PURTILL, her sister Anna married Timothy BURNS, another sister married McGUANE. A brick wall in IRELAND!!!!
Thanks, Betty

Welcome to Ireland Reaching Out!
Does the 1844 church marriage record indicate a church name. I understand the marriage was in her father's house. The RC parish will help us figure out the civil parish and then maybe we can refer your message to a local volunteer.
By the way, I could not find a Cartyfree. The closest was Carrowfree in Kilrush parish.
