ThANKS VERY MUCH MOSSY

I have Samuel and eliza's marriage cert and the dates 22 of oct 1865 and their names are the same, as well as the district Newry and the Church of Ireland, however i'm surprised

to read that the church was St Mary's as i don'nt have that information on the copy that Gro sent me.

I would be interested to here how you got your info as this has now added another piece to the puzzel.

Also would you know if this Church is a Catholic or Protestant Church?

Also do you know if their is a James st in Newry as one of Samuel and Eliza's sons Robert Cowan Was born in Newry and i think the cert say's 5 James st. any info would be much appreciated.

regards Rosie
