Hi I need some help/Advice

I am trying to research a part of my other halfs family but have come stuck on one side. We have an Albert Marshfield Married to Eliza/Elizabeth from Ireland. She was born around 1865-67 from census records and married between 1881-1891
The only Albert Marshfield I can find married then is to a Eliza Jessop but I can't find any brith records for her.
Could anyone provide me with help on how to go obout this?

Thanks in advance
Becky

Yes all of the above are them,

Albert was born in England but married Irish girl Eliza. I am trying to find record of her birth but dont know how to go about it for Irish records. I currently dont know surname but would like to find out so can go further down that side of the tree.

Irish records are few and far between and very difficult to find. Family Search may have something and it's free?

There is a tree on Ancestry that has your couple and her father is listed as John Jessop

I suppose you could check Elizabeths maiden name by getting the birth cert for her son although I think you will find it is more than likely Jessop

Births Sep 1890 (>99%)

Marshfield Thomas Aston 6d 231



Her marriage certificate should have her fathers name and occupation

Although she was probably born too early, the GRO(I) index thru 1958 (excl N. Ireland post-partition) is available at:
https://www.familysearch.org/s/collection/list#page=1®ion=EUROPE

One can purchase certs (or cheaper still, the uncertified images of the rego) via:
http://www.groireland.ie/

Most City of Dublin parish registers are free online at:
http://www.irishgenealogy.ie/
[There are also Carlow, Cork & Kerry OPRs there too]

You'll need her surname first, though.
