Groom Name john MOFFATT
Bride Name sarah MCCLEMENTS
Church Macosquin Presbyterian Church
Parish Camus-juxta-Bann (Macosquin)
Civil District Coleraine

This marriage is not at GRONI, even for 1926. It would also be odd for Samuel McClements to have two of his children married on the same day in 1925, though, having said that, I think David's marriage was 23rd not 25th December, when you look closely at the cert.
