Dear Mike your more than likely right ...... but keep in mind Bridget & John had James in 1873, she must have been born at least 1854/5.  Unfortunately Bridget b 1871 Holycross is too late.

I have tried for their marriage in both Tipperary and Kilkenny, yes there is lots of John Callaghans and Bridget Armstrongs marriages but none are of the same year in either County.

I have sat for hours searching possible matches on the IGI, mainly on Irish Family History Foundation through every Bridget/Biddy/Bridgetam Armstrong marriage in every parish/district available (may sound insane) in every County online.

That leaves the Counties that arent yet avaiable online including Laois. So I hope you see why I asked for help in this but if your sure Im looking in the wrong place Ill sit and wait. Your usually right ha ha.

Thanks Patzy C
