Find Ancestors

ThANKYOU all for looking. sorry i made it so difficult for you but i got the information i was looking for his marriage .Will do better in future promise

there are Conniss births with mothers Burrows and Greenwood, in Devonshire and Bedfordshire, but no marriages in those names, so probably these are the other brothers, who married in Ireland ?
