Hi Team. I am tracing a friends Irish Family History.

I have an Grandfather Thomas Carpenter Born 1889 in Kells.
He married Josephine Grace in 1932 also in Kells.

However he was a widower when he married Josephine.

I have located the death details of his first wife. Mary Ellen Carpenter who
died 25th July 1920 at the age of 27.

What I cant locate is the marriage between Thomas and Mary Ellen.

I can see three possible options on FMP however dont have that access.

I have checked the free Irish genealogy site which has been most helpful up to this point.

If anybody wants to have a look for me that has access to irish records that would be great.

Thanks

Kim

Do you have this? Looks like a daughter from Thomas’s first marriage. There is also a probable death for her as a baby. The death was registered by Mary’s sister Annie O’Malley.
