I am trying to purchase a marriage certificate of my great grandparents. They were James Scannell and Ellen Buckley and were married in Cork, Ireland. Their oldest child was born in 1902, so I was presuming that they married approx. 1900-1902 I went to Cork Register office, have read various information online, visited catholic churches etc. but all my enquiries tell me that I need to know the exact date of the marriage (month, day & year) I need the exact date before any attempt to refer to records is made Any ideas on how I can get the exact date bearing in mind the only info I have is that it is in Cork. I don't know the specific area of Cork. Any suggestions greatly welcomed Gail
