Rachel:

Most marriages occurred in the bride's parish. Since Drumlane RC marriage records are on Roots, my guess is that the marriage occurred in Kildallan/Tomregan RC parish (Roots says those records start in 1857). Since the oldest daughter was baptized on April 19th 1857, likely the marriage was in 1856 and if in Kildallan/Tomregan maybe right before records are available.

On July 8th the National Library of Ireland plans to place all RC parish registers online for free searching. I would review the Drumlane register and the Kildallan register.

Both parishes are in the Diocese of Kilmore.
