Today I ordered and downloaded a copy of the marriage certificate from "Births, Deaths and Marriages Victoria" a website affiliated with the Victoria government. The charge was AUS $22 including tax. The quality of the image was noted on the image to the "Best Quality" but in fact is pretty bad. Nevertheless it does show the names to the parents. In the case of Thomas Edward it states that his father was Thomas Phelan with no middle name, which I personally agree to be correct. Someone in the past made the incorrect assumption that the father and son both had the middle name Edward. I am removing that from the father today. The mother is the important missing fact and it DOES show that she was Catherine McLoughlin, though the writing is pretty hard to read. Nevertheless this is the ONLY document from this family that I have personally seen which actually shows her surname. A big surprise was the names of the bride and her parents. While her name was shown as Hanora rather than Norah (both commonly substituted for one another) the names of her parents are completely different from what I had as her parents names - William Gavin and Julia (?). Instead the marriage certificate shows their names as Mauris Gavin (hard to read but probably meant to be Maurice, which was the name she gave to one of their sons) and Bridget Carthy (probably shortened from McCarthy).

• Minister/Priest: George N. (?) Barry, RC Priest, St. Francis Church, 24 Jul 1867, Melbourne, Victoria, Australia.

• Witnesses: Dominick (?) Brazzman (?), Elizabeth Rourke (?) and Sarah Ann (?) Gardner, 24 Jul 1867, Melbourne, Victoria, Australia. All names are at least partially illegible, written by the witnesses who may not have been all that literate. Marriage Notes
