Here is a link to the parish register for Suncroft RC parish. Catherine Berney married Mark Hyland on August 13 1834. Witnesses were Edward Conlan and Mary Byrne.

The baptism was in the same parish May 9 1813.father Richard Berney and mother Jean (no maiden name shown). Maly Mahon and Mary Nowland were the sponsors.

You show William McCain as the husband but record shows Mark Hyland.

Lois,

If I identified the correct William B-

I have not found records in Ireland for William and Catherine but found a memorial on Find a Grave for William. It suggests he might have been from Donegal. They had a daughter Catherine at sea. With the exception of William, the rest of the children were born in Philadelphia. The death record above is incorrect. Censuses on Ancestry show Ireland.

Lois,

William's brother Samuel.

Samuel McCain (1807-1861) - Find a Grave Memorial

Per a tree on Ancestry, Samel's son John who was born in Ireland.

"15 Feb 1830 • Donegal, Ireland

There are conflicting dates for his birth: 1830--Death Certificate, 1832--1900 census and 1834--Family Bible pages. Not sure which is correct."
