Hi Ian I actually made a typing error in the first email which might confuse you. In John Mullin’s marriage registration it named the fathers of John and Margaret. I reversed them in my haste - should read Michael Mullin and Bernard Owens.
I also did a search on Griffiths (1860 in Foremass) and found Michael and many Mullins. I’ve got all these records now so if you can’t find them, let me know. And I suggest you go through the steps again and confirm you agree. I enjoyed doing it! Cora-Ann Sent from my iPad > On 21 Mar 2018, at 6:33 pm, Ian Moules <[email protected]> wrote: > > Wow.
