William Teahen (or Teaghan) and Mary Hanrahan

KilkennyUrlingford (Kilkenny)

Hello,

I think I have found the marriage record for an ancestor William Teahenand his wife Mary Hanrahan who seem to have been married in this parish.

William says he was living in Ardreigh at the time of his marriage on Sept 25, 1828, however I do not find that Parish on this website.

I am hoping there will be someone with information that can help me with more information.

William and Mary had 5 children, Ally (born 1829) , John (born 1830) , Michael (born 1833) , Mary (born 1835)and Ellen (born 1837), all baptized in Johnstown Parish, address listed as Donoughmore.

The family moved to Ontario, Canada sometime before 1851. Ally and Mary do not seem to have come to Canada, so they may have died before this.

Thank you for your help!

Welcome to Ireland Reaching Out!

Ardreagh is a townland and not a parish. There are two Ardreagh townlands and likely William was from the one in Urlingford civil parish.

Thanks so much for the response -  I think that is what I meant to write, sorry for the confusion.  guess I am posting this on the correct message board, as the message boards are based on Parishes and not specific Townlands?

 

Thanks again,

Alison

Thanks very much Roger. I guess there is no way to know which specific church they were married in? 

Thanks again,
