Maureen and Ken:

Bridget and Mary were baptized on January 26 1855 in the Inagh and Kilnamona RC parish. Here is a link to the actual parish register

There was also a Patrick baptized March 10 1850    https://registers.nli.ie//registers/vtls000634735#page/57/mode/1up

Patrick's baptismal record showed they lived in Boolynamiscaun townland in Inagh civil parish. The 1855 Griffiths Valuation head of household listing also shows Timothy in Bollynamiscaun.

There was also another Mary baptized September 19 1852 who must have died young.

In addition, there were three other children-- Martin August 29 1858, Ellen January 26 1862 Anne January 15 1869

I did not find a marriage record. Inagh and Kilnamona marriage records start April 14 1850 so if they were married in that parish a record would not exist unless Patrick was born before they married.

Let me know what questions you have.
