Carol,
To add to Mary's information, the residence for some baptisms of their later children shows Eightyeight Acres, Athboy, Meath. Griffith's Valuation (1854) records for that townland show both Murray and Cassidy families as tenants.

Carolyn
To add to Carolyn's posting, the address for the child John is "The Green."
