If you obtain a copy of the civil marriage cert, it should give you bride and grooms townlands (addresses) at the time of their marriage, their fathers names, occupations and other genealogical information. The marriage was registered in Lurgan, Co. Armagh 1845 Volume 7, page 351. You can order a photocopy of that cert from GRO Roscommon for 4 euros. http://www.groireland.ie/
Tradition was to marry in the bride’s church so that’d be the place to look for her baptism and that of any siblings. PRONI (the public record office) has a copy of the following records for Tartaraghan Church of Ireland. You might just find Ann’s baptism depending on her age:
C.I. Tartaraghan (Armagh diocese) Baptisms, 1825-88; marriages, 1824-45; burials, 1828- 82; confirmations, 1840.

Looks like they went to live in Scotland? The birth certificate of son born 1855 would probably contain lots of useful details-
https://familysearch.org/pal:/MM9.1.1/VQQD-4QL
"1855 birth records were very detailed and are a boon to the family historian. In addition to details about the child (date, place and time of birth, full name, sex), the parents' names (including maiden surname of mother), father's occupation, name of informant and relationship to child, an 1855 birth certificate also contains information on siblings, the ages and birthplaces of both parents, their usual residence and the date and place of their marriage. Such detail proved difficult to sustain and entries were modified from 1856."
