Its just a pity we can't find his marriage! :-D

If you are desparate to find the name of the spouse, have you considered asking the Town Clerks Office to send you a copy....assuming it was filed?

Chris, as asked above - do you know when he went to US and where he was born?

This will possibly help us find him.

His Fathers parents were John and Mary from Ireland. So if the census is listing his Fathers parents then this would indeed be them
