Seeking Marriage of Daniel Leddy, my husband's great grandfather!

CavanLurgan (Cavan)

Hello,

My husband's dad was from Cavan and I'm seeking his great grandfather, Daniel Leddy's first marriage record. Daniel was baptised in Drumlane Parish estimated 1830-34? 

Daniel's first wife was Mary Johnston baptised 14 May 1834 in Lurgan. Her parents, William Johnston ad Elizabeth McDermott were from Lisgrey/Lisgrea. This record is on Roots Ireland too. 

1. My best guess is that Daniel Leddy & Mary Johnston were married between 1850-1855. Please let me know if you find their marriage. 

2. Is there be a death record in Lurgan of Mary Leddy between 1850s - 1864?  By July 1864, Daniel is a widower who marries his second wife in Lavey. 

 

Thank you,

Mrs. Smith

Hi, 

Attached copy of the marriage of Daniel Leddy per www.rootsireland - The record just states Cavan, so hopefully you may already have the parish where he was living? The information does not show any witness names!

Regards,

McCoy

Hello McCoy, 

The Daniel Leddy I am seeking was born around 1830-34.

In 1864 he is a widower and marries his 2nd wife and it states he's 30 years old then. The Daniel Leddy you found who married in 1834 must be another one. So far I have not found his 1st marriage to Mary Johnson or Johnston which happened prior to 1864. Thank you.
