Bernard Boyle circa 1831-1898 and Hannah Waldron circa 1835-1905

I am at a stumbling block in my family research - Bernard and Hannah are my 2nd Great Grandparents both originated in Ireland. I dont know where they married or where in Ireland they came from. The birth dates are taken from census records. There are no UK records of their marriage.

This is what I do know.

From UK census Bernards year of birth is around 1831 and born in Ireland but no place name and Hannah (also known as Ann and Annie) year of birth is between 1835-1837 born in Ireland. On one census for Hannah a birth place name is shown as Maijo

The birth of their children were all in Kingston Upon Hull, England, where Bernard and Hannah lived - first John 1859 followed by Mary 1857 (my great grandmother), Catherine 1861, Annie 1865, Ellen 1866, Thomas 1868, Bernard 1873.

In the1871 uk census Hannah had a sister called Margaret Waldron born 1853 in Ireland and another unknown family member was Thomas born 1863 but born in Hull Bernard is listed as Bryan in this census but from then on he is listed as Bernard.

I was unable to find an 1861 uk census for the family.
