John Patrick O'Brien

Mayo

Please help me find documentation for this ancestor. I believe he was born on May 21, 1854 (maybe 1857, though), in County Mayo. He married Mary Theresa (Teresa?) O'Connell, though I do not know if the marriage took place in Ireland. He became an American citizen on October 2, 1880; this would suggest he emigrated to America no later than 1877. Any direction that would help me document his existence will be greatly appreciated.

I searched on the subscription site Roots Ireland for 1851-1859 in Co. Mayo. There were records in 1851 1852 1853 and two in 1859 which I did not use. Below are the three records, Dates are baptismal dates.
