Hello again,
Many thanks to Sherrie Blackman and Robert Duggan for your prompt and detailed reply. I have obtained a marriage certificate for Thomas Delany and Catherine Salmon but it is very short on detail--no place of birth or parents names, only their place of abode. Thomas hailed from Prospect, Catherine from South Creek

The BD&M index also shows a Joseph Holland m Bridget Gibbs in 1886 (1886/586). I must confess I leaned to the Emily A Gibbs marriage because of the recurring christian names William and Joseph ( Joseph's father was William, William's brother was Joseph, and Joseph's grandfather was also Joseph.) A little guesswork here which I understand is not good genealogical practice.

Thanks again and happy hunting --any help gratefully received,

Regards Bill Holland.
