I don't have much information about my great-great grandmother Anne Faherty (maiden name Davis), but I know she died September 1958 in Galway, probably the Renvyle-Derryinver area.
Her husband was Patrick Faherty, and they had 6 kids
-
Could this be her? Died 7th June 1958, aged 90 in Roscrea, aged 90. Widow. Son Anthony Faherty of Letterfrack was the informant.

That's them! Well at teh very least, that confirms that Patrick's father's name was Thomas.

Anne's mother was Johanna Morris

There are few Davis famlies in Aughrusbeg/Aughrus Beg this John And wife Bridget may be Anne's brother
http://www.census.nationalarchives.ie/pages/1901/Galway/Sillerna/Aughrusbeg/1370165/
Their marriage in 1889
https://civilrecords.irishgenealogy.ie/churchrecords/images/marriage_returns/marriages_1889/10727/5911090.pdf
gives Thomas as deceased.
This appears to be Johanna's death with John as informant in 1899

Thomas' death in 1883 with Johanna as informant
https://civilrecords.irishgenealogy.ie/churchrecords/images/deaths_returns/deaths_1883/06371/4828096.pdf
Thomas Davis and Johanna Morris had a daughter Anne in 1864
https://civilrecords.irishgenealogy.ie/churchrecords/images/birth_returns/births_1864/03602/2328385.pdf
Bit too old for your Anne with an age at marriage of 24 in 1897 so born c1873. Not that she is consistent with her age in the Census.
Where did you find her mother as Johanna Morris?

Does that say Johanna Walsh as Thomas Davis's wife?
Morris is the information from my grandma and her family
-
I missed the Walsh this morning, a bit tired sorry.
No it just says she was present when he died, she could be a neighbour, friend, anything but not his wife.
-
Assuming your Grandmother knows her family best, it looks like Anne was confused about her age and she was born 1864.
1864 is the year civil registration started in Ireland so her parents won't have a marriage cert.
The parish is Roundstone but their records don't start until 1872
https://registers.nli.ie/parishes/1080
The other possibility is the 1864 Anne died and her name was used again (quite common practice) but I don't see a death or birth to back up this idea.
-
Ah you might be in luck Aughrusbeg is listed under two parishes
Omey has much better records
https://registers.nli.ie/parishes/1046
Hopefully your family attended a church in this parish.
