McGarry/Carney marriage help please

[Lisa1975]

Hi,  i have a brick wall that i am hoping for some help with please

My Husband's Great x 2 Grandparents are Michael Carney and Bridget McGarry. This has been confirmed via baptism records (Cheshire non conformist) and i have been unable to find a marriage for them.

Michael was born approx 1823, Bridget's yob varies between census but is approx 1827. Both according to census records, were born in Galway.

They moved to Congleton/Astbury in Cheshire around 1851 - 1853 as their first 4 children were born in Galway, their 5th in Congleton.

Mary Ann Carney 1848 Ireland
Winifred Carney 1850– Ireland
Patrick Carney 1851– Ireland
James Carney 1853–1895 - Ireland
Thomas Carney 1855– Congleton
Edward Carney 1859– Congleton
Catherine Carney 1861–Congleton
Jane Carney 1863– Congleton
Bridget Carney 1865– Congleton
Anna Carney 1867– Congleton
Michael Carney 1870–1928 - Congleton

Any help tracing the marriage for Michael and Bridget, and if possible their parents name would be amazing.

Many thanks

Lisa

www.registers.nli.ie has RC Parish records online but you would need to know area of Galway i.e Parish.  You could also look at www.nationalarchives.ie - Griffiths Valuation/Tithe Applotment/Census 1901 & 1911 for the distribution of the surname in different parishes in Galway
