Nell Harrington's wedding 1950

Ireland 1950

The footage was taken by an American cousin that was visiting Ireland back in 1950. It includes a wedding which took place at Breedogue Church. Which is situated on the Boyle to Frenchpark Road, County Roscommon. I believe the reception was somewhere near Sligo. There was no sound apart from the added music. If you recognise anyone and or any places please let me know (with the time it appears in the video) and I will add them.
