Hi I’m trying to trace the ancestors and birth places of this couple. I have their marriage certificate they were married in Sandyford Dublin but it says they were from Cavan on the certificate and they moved to Widnes UK after they married.
Many thanks
Graeme

To assist volunteers can you provide any additional info. Dates are always helpful. Did they have children? When and where did they die?

Parents' names from marriage record.
On RootsIreland (paid subscription) there is a Daniel Martin married to a Brigid Lee in Cavan in 1861. Children- Mary 1864, James 1867, and Brigid 1870. I did not find Ann, but this could be her family??
On the 1911 England Census Ann shows her birthplace as Sandyford and on the 1921 Census she shows Dublin.
