Help! I have found the basic info on a marriage in 1887 between Hamilton McAllen and Jeannie ? in County Antrim (probably Ballymoney) but I cannot access any more info - ie Jeannie's maiden name and the date. It's probably the only info I need so ideally it's not worth a subscription - can anyone help?
