I have been try to get certificates for my Gr-Grandparents without any success.
the GRO have been unable to find anything,
the Church where they had their children baptized ( and lived close to before and after they married )
have no records,
they advised me to contact the Pro Cathedral for records pre 1925,
I have contacted the Pro Cathedral and they also have no records for them.

I know next to nothing about Irish records but I believe with the troubles in 1920's that some were destroyed in fire.
Put this on tips there is quite a lot of useful info re Ireland on there. I think Teresa has put up a thread re advice on Irish records.

Sorry can't help any more.
