The marriage is listed on Ancestry Ireland aka Ulster Historical Foundation
www.ancestryireland.com

If you buy some credits on there you can view their transcript of the marriage record, or you can order a copy of the certificate from the Irish GRO or Northern Irish GRO, or from the local register office for where the marriage took place.

The free search on Ancestry Ireland gives the name of Samuel's father as Bernard and the name of Susanna's father as Hugh.

Have you already found them on the 1901 and 1911 censuses?

Hi Kiterunner,Thanks for Your reply. On the 1901 census Susanna Clarke is in Ardrosson Scotland with her mother Anne McDowell, a widow, but there is no sign of Samuel Clarke her husband.I have Anne m/s Smith, or Smyth, marrying Hugh McDowell, in Ireland in 1860 i think, his father was also Hugh McDowell,and that's about it, Regards Del.

Presumably the 1901 census says Susanna is married, not widowed?

Have you looked at the transcription for Samuel and Susanna's marriage (or ordered the certificate)?

Click on the link in post #4 above. It costs £4 (4 GBP) to view one record.

Or there is http://ifhf.rootsireland.ie

but it is saying there are 2 records on the marriage on there and it would cost 8 Euros. I'm not sure whether it would be worth the extra to view both records or not as one might just be banns or something.
