So far I have looked on ancestry and also on IGI and drawn a blank.
Its for an Anthony and Mary Ann Mulligan, who both came from Sligo, Ireland.
Anthony was born about 1821, Mary Anne about 1826. I did think of looking for the marriage under IGI for Ann Hart or Mary Ann Hart as the name crops up a few times in subsequent generations but this did not come to anything. Anthony and Mary Ann came from Ireland and settled in Caistor sometime before the 1851 census (they aren't here in 1841), presumably because of the potato famine. How they got there I don't know, they could have walked from Sligo and got a boat on the east coast of Ireland over. It is possible they married here, but equally they could have married in Sligo.
Any help you can give would be gratefully received. I have now made contact with two third cousins and we are all keen to find out out our mutual great, great, grandparents.
