Ahh, so you are thinking the William Walsh entry is in fact William Wallace and it is a transcription error?  Marriage certificate states his father was a farmer so him also being a farmer before joining the DMC makes sense.

I am so grateful for all this, thank you so much. I have been stuck getting back with this part of my family tree for years. The two eldest children being before his marriage to Fanny suggests they are not hers and are from his first marriage which makes sense.

He resigned earlier too, in November 1853, shortly after joining, but rejoined. The reason given for his resignation was 'to emigrate'.

Given the marriage record has his father's name as Samuel, he is probably William Wallace baptised 21 April 1833. Address given as Carrigacrew in the Church of Ireland parish of Kildrumferton in Co. Cavan. Father Samuel Wallace (labourer), mother Ann Wallace. There appear to be siblings Jane, Ellen, Sarah and Samuel.
