I clicked on tracing irish roots on genes reu. but i can't get the link..............Any-one know how to trace connections in ireland, i will only be able to get a maiden name and date of a marriage(.which i suspect was in uk.) I reckon it will be almost impossible BUT thought i'd ask. Thanks. Ps! is there any way i can find out a spouses maiden name (before 1900) without sending for the marriage cert?
