Thanks for all the information on the marriage. William order that one. Don't understand why you carnt get a pdf for marriages. You probably do. Strange. Thnx Pam. Need a win on ggs lol.
 
The reason you can't get PDFs for marriage certs is to do with their legal use. If a woman uses it as proof of change of name, for example, it must be the full certified certificate issued by the GRO. PDF files are only copies and not legally binding.
 
I knew you would know. I learn something everyday. Not Latin, I struggled with French.
I wouldn't have known that. Thanks Pam..Always answers. I can see Agnes O'Connor born 1848.PDF? Thanks, Keith.
 
A couple of bits of luck - Agnes' parents, Patrick & Mary married just after registration began, Jun 1938 Bham.

And on the 1871 census Agnes is with her widowed mother and she gives her birthplace as County Mayo.

Here is the Catholic listing for Patrick and Mary's marriage, though there's little detail...

Thanks Mark, as you say 1838 so doable. Yes, agree hard to decipher.
Thank you, got a couple of certs to work on. O' Connor was as bad
as when I researched Connolly Connelly. Again, more info. Appreciated

Keith.

Agnes Connor born 23 March and baptised 2 April 1848
Daughter of Patrick and Mary Connor (nee O'Hara).
Godfather Patrick Day
Godmother Helen (looks like Spellman).

The original register was still being used

I dont know how you do it Pam. I might be attempting Irish ancestry . I've screenshot all the info from yourself, Mark and Lyn. Half my tablet memory is probably ancestry lol.
I don't like Latin. Glad I failed my 11 plus. My dad wasn't bless him. With ancestry discovered a hell of alot about my life. Lucky I found this site years ago. A few great people who've pushed the boat out. Take a bow. Mark & Lyn too. Cheers.A few. Certificates needed.
