Richard Butler and Mary Connor

Hello to you all:

 

I am trying to find the marriage record of Richard Butler and Mary Connor, and if its posible, their baptisms.They have their children ( among of those is my ancestor Elizabeth Butler , born in 1757, in Mullingar, married to Patrick Brennan also in Mullingar in 1781) I know that it is  difficult if you see the years I am searching.

But someone on Ancestry, and MyHeritage have a tree with all my ancestors,but private, and didnt respond to my message ( the owner of that tree is been not connected the last 10 months or so ). All I could see was the estimated year of their birth ( Richard and Mary)  says: 1737

Would you please take a look, and see if you can find anything? Anything will help, maybe their marriage 

 

Thanks in advance

According to the index on the NLI site, there is a 30 year gap in marriage records starting in July 1754. I did search the subscription site Roots Ireland but no record came up. Two possibilities-- the marriage occurred in Mullingar after July 1754 and before Elizabeth was born or the marriage occurred in another parish and records for that parish do not go back to the mid 1700s.
