Hello,

Marriages Jun 1866
SWEENEY John Lambeth 1d 629
Marney Ann Lambeth 1d 629

I'd like a look up please for that marriage. Could possibly be MAHONEY.

If the marriage can be found and it is not a transcription but an image of the parish register then I'll do the transcription if the image could be emailed to me please.

Thanks.

Dave

Thanks Geoff.

:2fun: The tree is wrong again and so is the death reg.

NSW Death 1446/1919 SWEENEY ANN - JOHN - MARRICKVILLE

If Ann was of 'full age' in 1866 then how can her birth be in 1847?

Interesting, thanks Geoff.

I took this one as the trees had 1919:

1446/1919 SWEENEY ANN - JOHN - MARRICKVILLE

Well, it's a daughter in my tree - Laura Mary V SWEENEY so that looks a better fit for Ann's death.
