Christopher Ignatius Pollard is one of my Grandfather's numerous siblings. He emigrated to the USA and had two sons born in the USA and was married to Ethel.
I found Ethel Pollard on the New York Passenger list, but picked up the wrong information...the name of her father, plus the fact that she was from Sligo, Ireland!
Ethel Pollard's arrival date: 9 Jun 1925 on New York Passenger list on SS Republic. Next of Kin, Father: Hugh Meehan.
I had previouly searched the Ireland Civil Registration List for a marriage of Christopher to Ethel in Dublin....and found nothing.
Luckily I go back over my information gathered, from time to time and found my mistake!
They married in Sligo!
