I have not yet found evidence of which daughter married Michael O'Brien.
I have attached a document, Irish Famine Eviction, Louth, May 1851. The Hugh McEleavy evicted by Lord Anglesey from his Carlingford, Louth estate may be the Hugh mentioned above. The date fits in with the family being on the IOM.
