Where Did Mary Go?

Happy Mothers Day to all Mothers.  

Mary Flood's birth was 11/5/1917 and registered in Baltinglass.  Daughter of Julia Flood.

Mary Flood married James Percival son of Catherine Percival (formerly Doyle)  on 24/4/1941 Kiltegan Oratory and their marriage was registered in Baltinglass.  On their wedding certificate, James signed his name as James Percy Percival.    James died in 1950, registered Baltinglass.  They had four children.

Mary Flood/Percival remarried on 22nd Oct 1958 to a John? O'Leary born 4/8.1920 (farm labourer) son of Patrick O'Leary & Bridget Gahan.  Witnesses were James & Philomena O'Leary.

Now, this is where I'd be grateful for any assistance.   After this last wedding, I fail to find either Mary Flood/Percival/O'Leary and her husband John? O'Leary and the children born to Mary and James.  Anyone able to offer me guidance.  I would be eternally grateful.

Maureen

Hi, I see the eldest son James b 1946 died in 1948, this is in Ancestry, the deaths don't appear in the Ireland BDM site.
I searched for Mary O'Leary and found a death in Yorkshire in 1976.
In a family tree it has both her death and her son. It doesn't mention the John O'Leary.
I see Mary's Mother Julia married in 1938.

Margot, thank you so much for your response, gratefully received.    I have all the detail you offered me but will look at your suggestion for death in Yorkshire.  It simply is, that I can't find anything about Mary and her second husband and the children after her marriage to John? O'Leary.

Hi, No I have searched for Mary and John O'Leary and no results.
Two sites only list 3 children.
Michael who died.
Peter the son married in 1970 in Teeside South, Yorkshire
Catherine, only her birth shows.
Sorry but no other records.
