Patrick Farrell or OFarrell from Longford

hello everyone: I recently received the death certificate of my great grandparent Patrick O'Farrell, who was born in Longford ( I don´t know the parish) around 1840, and emigrate to Argentina aroun 1865, with a brother called John O´Farrell, or that is what the Coghlan´s book says
Thing is, that in the death certificate, it is sayd that he was the son of Santiago ( James) O´Farrell and Juana ( Jane) O´Farrell, wich I don´t know if that was her maiden name.Patrick died at the age of 78 in 1922. 
I only found a baptism record, from a Patrick Farrell, borned in Longford in 1843, who´s parents were James Farrell and Jane Hughs, with no siblings as far I can see
Is there any help or sugestion you can offer me to find him and his brother?

 

Thanks

I searched the subscription site Roots Ireland and located an October 10 1843 baptismal record at the Ardagh and Moydow RC church with parents James Farrell and Jane Farrell.  I also found a July 15 1839 baptismal record for a John Farrell with the same parents in the same RC church. There was also a brother James baptized in 1841, a brother Luke baptized in 1845 and a sister Anne baptized in 1847.

I did not locate a marriage record.
