I strongly suspect that this was the same couple.

St Patrick's Chapel was in Park Place and was Roman Catholic while St Nicholas was Church of England.

Copperas Hill would be Robert's residence.

One scenario is that this was a mixed marriage and the families each wanted it blessed in their own religion.

A Catholic marriage also required a registrar present whereas a C of E one didn't.

The reason for the different addresses is because the banns were required to be called in their own parish.
