Hi,
Thank you for your message.
Have you tried looking in Church records for records of any other children that Martin and Eliza may have had? Most Catholic records are held locally. However, the irishtimes website allows you to see an overview of what records are available in specific parishes. For Ballymote follow this link:

For Church of Ireland records check http://ireland.anglican.org/about/42 and http://www.nationalarchives.ie/.
