Willetts/dougherty

[Marika]

I'm searching for the marriage of Charles Willetts b;1817apx and Mary Ann Dougherty b:1840apx, they may have been married in St Helens, Lancs, Charles was a fishmonger living on Exchange St, St helens, in 1876. I'd be greatful for any information.

Hi Marika
Below is probably the widow of Charles and two sons in 1901 census. It is quite likely that he married in Ireland which is why you have difficulty in locating their marriage and since none of these can be found in the 1881 census it is likely they were visiting Ireland at that time

NOTE: This is not the same Mary as 1881 family in reply to Birth query who was born in Lancs. but it is possible the information of these seperate families has become blurred over the years
