Frank East in Cork in 1857

CorkCork City (Cork)

Hello ,
More information on the Frank East who was married in Cork , Cork , Ireland about 1857. His wife's name was Elizabeth C.....
I found a record for this marriage and it's listed under Cork , Cork , Ireland . ..no church name as far as I can tell .
I can not find any immigration records for ANY Frank East...and the last name causes a lot of false results . ..as addresses show up as matches instead of the last name.

I am wanting to know if THIS Frank East stayed in Ireland . .any further information about this couple would be greatly appreciated !

Best Regards ,
Karen

Welcome to Ireland Reaching Out!

I located the civil marriage record and the spouse was Elizabeth Christy. The fathers names are shown below. I did not see any other record after 1857 i.e. 1901 census or a death record.

Thank you for looking into the marriage and census and other records!
I'm at a loss as to how to figure out if this Frank East could be MY Frank East.
I can't find any immigration records . ..and he is alive only long enough to show up in the 1860 U.S. Census in Louisville Kentucky .

His widow Kate (? ) did not get married after he died...and I didn't find any marriage record in Kentucky for a Frank East and a Kate/Katherine /Catherine .

I was wondering if this Frank East was the right one because I also found some Murphys in Cork , Cork , Ireland . ....but that is like looking for Smith or Brown or Jones surnames in the U.S.

I wonder if there are any EAST families living in the Cork area?

Thanks again !
