Don't want to dash your hopes but finding an exact address would be very lucky!

I paid a researcher to check out some Brady Marriages in the Parish Records in RC Church in Rathmines Co. Dublin for me from 1843.

Details were not that informative in 1843 it only gave the names of the Bride and Groom.

By 1859 they were recording a bit more....eg.

10th Feb 1859
Patrick Brady of Rockfield Co Donegal son of Patrick and Margaret Kelly of Ballyshannon and Mary J Murray of Rathmines dau of James Murray and Elenor Daly
Witness: Edward Kelly and Jane O'Connell


A bit more informative later on. eg.,

11th Nov 1883
James Kavanagh of Malpas St son of Thomas Kavanagh and Ellen Allen of Wexford to Brigid Brady of Ranelagh dau of Michael Brady and Mary Byrne of Roundwood
Witnesses: John Byrne of Edmondstown and Catherine Wall of Enniskerry.


But I suppose it would depend on the Parish Priest and the Church's guidelines as to what was recorded and when.

But it would seem that the further you go back the less information is recorded...even in England.
