Rice

Hi, I am looking for the parents and siblings of Thomas Rice born 1846 Forkill. Thomas married Rose Gribben at Dromintee on the 13 May 1861.
Regards

Danny,
Date of the marriage was 17th May. Witnesses were Thomas Laverty and Patrick Rice who was presumably a relation:

Dromintee’s baptisms don’t start till 1853 so if that is where Thomas was baptised, sadly the records don’t exist. Forkhill is partially in Mullaghbawn RC parish. Their baptisms start in 1845. Have you searched them for Thomas’s baptism? The RC parish records are on-line free on the National Library site:

Danny,
No I am the one who made the mistake. Yours is on the date you gave. I have picked up another Thomas Rice marriage on the same page. The wrong one.
