I am trying to find a record of my ggrandparents marriage. Joseph Robinson b.1864 Manchester Elizabeth D'Arcy b.1872 Manchester They were married between 1891 and 1901. I cannot find anything at all about either of them apart from Elizabeth on 1881 census. I cannot find anything about Joseph including his birth. i know they are buried together in a roman catholic grave in Southern Cemetery. THEN I cannot find anything about Elizabeth's parents after 1881. Both were Irish and Catholic, so dont know if they died or returned to Ireland. John D'Arcy born Ireland 1833 Bridget born Ireland 1838 name unknown as married before John. May possibly be buried in manchester but no records on 1891 census. Please if anyone can help me i would be very grateful, any leads or ideas. Karen ps also have ggrandfather on paternal side also Irish James Davis b Ireland 1864. Married Minnie Preston Manchester. Nothing on their marriage neither

Karen, you may be better off asking this on either Tips OR records, there are a lot of people who will help there. This may slip off page 1 pretty quickly on this board. Good luck xx

The RC Church does not release there records so I have been told..but the marriage should still be registered.. Unless they was married in Ireland.. Hayley
