Welcome to Ireland Reaching Out!
Roots Ireland has records for Annagh RC parish back to 1802 but there was no John Brien or Catherine Connor baptismal records in Annagh five years before and after 1837 and 1841 respectively. I did find the two records below for possible daughters.
I also looked at the 1855 Griffiths Valuation head of household lising for Annagh parish but did not see a John Brien or O'Brien. There are some other O'Brien records.
