Another of the documents Maureen sent me was this marriage certificate of her grandparents, James J. Mulvaney and Florence M. Goggin. They were married at St. Stephen's Church on 3 September 1922. The officiant was Fr. William A. Fogarty, and their witnesses were Thomas P. Mulvaney, James's brother, and Helen M. Goggin, likely a relative of Florence's. This certificate was dated 28 January 1927.Update: I heard from Maureen today. She confirms that Helen was in fact her grandmother Florence's sister. Florence and Helen also had sisters named Edna and Violet. What beautiful names for sisters!
