Welcome to Ireland Reaching Out!
We are doing a cleanup of older messages that never got a response and we apologize for not responding.
I looked at the subscription site Roots Ireland and found five other baptismal records for children of Michael Killian and Catherine Fallon in addition to the record for Elleanora that you located. I pasted the transcriptions below including a Margaret with no date.
The first record for John was in Knockcroghery which is another name for Killinvoy parish. However, all of the remaining records were in St. Peter's Athlone which is further south from Killinvoy RC and civil parishes. The Griffiths Valuation survey was completed in 1855. If your Michael was having children baptized in Athlone, I don't think the Killinvoy Griffiths record would apply to him.
Another possibility is that there were two Michael Killeen/Killen Catherine Fallon couples.
Civil death records start in 1864, however, currently we only have index records for 1864-1877 at the free site www.irishgenalogy.ie and actual images of death records from 1878 on. If your Michael was in Kinllinvoy parish then the registration district was Roscommon and there is a death record in 1868 in Roscommon district for a Michael Killeen who died in 1868 at age 55.
