Hello,
please could you clarify your post. Do you know that your Mary's parents are Dennis McGowen and Mary Conefry?
When was she born?
Where did she live?
Were her parents with her?
regards
heywood

In that case, it looks very promising. You should follow that lead.

year of birth is important.. RC baptism records for the parish of Mohill go back to August 1836. As far as I can Bridget was baptised in 1838. So if your Mary was RC and born before 1836 there will be no record.
Maybe this Bridget is a sister ?
