Being based in the UK I would be very grateful for advice on tracing details on the marriage of my gg grandparents Patrick and Mary Hanley/Hanly (nee Connors) in the Limerick area in the late 1850s early 1860s. I have obtained a copy of their son Patrick’s birth certificate which states he was born on 1 April 1864 in the district of Murroe at Ballyboheen(?)/Ballycoleen(?) – the writing is not clear unfortunately. The registration number on the record was 8348536. They also had two daughters that I am aware of – Agnes born c1862 (my g grandmother) and Annie born c1867. The family eventually emigrated to Rhode Island in the US but I would love to trace details of their early days in Ireland. Thank you for taking the time to consider this request and for any assistance you are able to offer. Ljay
