I am searching for  information about my Grandmother Nora  (Hanora) Kelliher who was married to Jeremiah Kelliher,  Her maiden  surname was Keane (Kane). I was told she had 2 sisters  Julia and Hanna and one brother James.  Julia emigrated to the .U.S.  Hanna married Mathew Etchingham. Nora emigrated to the U.S.  James married  unknown and had 2 daughters Norrie and Barbara.  This information was given to me by Julia's granddaughter.  I was told that she came from County Kerry..

    Below is the 1866 civil marriage index record for the marriage of Jeremiah Keleher to Honora Keane. You can get a copy of this record from the General Register Office for about 4 euros. See instructions below the index record. The actual record will have the names of the fathers of the bride and groom and where the bride and groom were living in 1866.

    Go to this link http://www.welfare.ie/en/Pages/Apply-for-Certificates.aspx In the middle of the page there are links for birth, marriage or death certificates. Hit the link for the form you want. You will likely get a screen asking for a User Name and Password. (This is a program bug that the GRO has to correct). Hit cancel and the appropriate form should come up. Print the form and complete the requested information. Also provide the information from the index record--quarter/year of the event, registration district and the volume and page number where the event is recorded. Make sure you ask for a copy which costs around 4 euros. ( A cert costs closer to 20 euros). You can also ask the GRO to e-mail the copy back to you.
