Hi,
Boho parish (pronounced Bow as in bow and arrow) was merged with Devenish in terms of C of I. I must confess I have no experience with RC records. Attached is a map I downloaded which is supposed to show the location of graveyards. It suffers greatly because it does not give exact locations. Also you have to appreciate that in times gone past RC may have been buried in C of I churchyards.
The names Farmer and Hassard/Hazard are not those I would immediately assume were RC so there is a possibility that prior generations may be C of I.
Early C of I Boho records were destroyed but a transcript survives in the PRONI for the following.
Boho,
Co. Fermanagh
Baptisms, 1844-77
Baptisms, 1840-77
Marriages,1847-70
Burials, 1840-79
D523AB [Copy available in Self-Service Microfilm Room] CR1/89A/3
No mention of RC.
Lesky townland is in the south of the Civil Parish of Boho so I would expect the RC to be Cleenish - details below - note, as it states, it does not list and Church records held locally.
All known copies for Cleenish
(excluding originals in local custody)

Getting one of the childrens birth certificates after 1864 will confirm mother's maiden name. When you order from the GRO remember to quote the year, location and ref. number.
Given the ages of the couple it is likely they married pre 1864. If so you may be lucky and get a copy of the microfilm from your local LDA centre. However it is quite likely it will be written in latin.
