William Meade and Mary Driscoll, witnesses: Terry and Mary Mahoney. of Crookhaven
(dispensatio obtenta in 3^0 gradii affinitatis)

Note: I think the dispensation indicates that William's two wives were first cousins, or aunt and niece to each other. Great grandchild/great grandmother would also be included, but that would probably be much of a difference in ages. Both Marys were born in the 1850's.

Narrative

The Schull West baptisms online stop at 1880, so there are none online for the children of this marriage. The parish should still have them.
