Thank you for all the comments. Charles may have been married twice but I can't confirm this Yes they lived in Old Colwyn,North Wales, where my grandmother was born,but why he left Ireland I don't know. Vicky

If you were able to purchase the marriage certificate or find a church register marriage for Charles ‘Corlan’ and Mary Hughes in 1864, that would tell you his marital status and his father’s name.

Where do you have records or references to Mary ‘Donnay’  being your great great grandparent?

Just to say that North Wales BMD only shows possibles spouses and indicates that Charles Corlan marriage was a civil marriage, Conway.
