A new collection to MyHeritage is a register of civil marriage records from all 32 counties of Ireland between the years 1845 and 1921, continuing for the Republic of Ireland until 1958, with a number of entries from Irish citizens who married overseas. Records typically include the name of the bride or groom, and the date and place of marriage. Brides and grooms are both included in the index, but are listed separately under their own individual entries.
Registration of non-Catholic marriages began in 1845, with Catholic marriage registration following from 1864 onwards.
In the original form of this collection, brides and grooms were listed in separate paper indexes. Those names with the same reference have been matched to give all potential spouses that are shown on the same record page.
Note that the period covered extends to 1958 for the Republic, while the latest information at irishgenealogy.ie is for 1948.
