Marriage Licence Bonds.  County Armagh 1727-1845
County Armagh 1727-1845√
We have only completed the marriages with surnames beginning with letters A-L at present and will continue to complete the remaining records soon.  Where a person with a surname beginning with a letter M-Z married someone with a surname beginning with a letter A-L the record will appear on this database – for example John Burns & Mary Smith 1788. During the 17th and 18th centuries, when it was illegal for “dissenting” Clergy to perform marriages, some Roman Catholic and Presbyterians chose to be married in the Church of Ireland (Anglican Church). Before the licence was granted the couple had to enter a bond at a Diocesan Court. The bonds included the names of the bride, groom, their ages and place of residence. Unfortunately, most of the bonds and licences were destroyed in the Public Record Office, Dublin, in 1922, but indexes for many of them have survived. These indexes only contain the name of the bridegroom and bride and the year of the bond.
