I looked for the civil marriage index records in Co. Mayo and only located the marriage record for the first couple. A transcription of the record is below. The fathers of John and Anne were Patrick and Anthony.

Here is the 1856 Griffiths Valuation head of household listing for Ballynahaglish parish.
