Looks like I might be confusing someone, to clarify.
Mt Great Grandfather Patrick Conoughton or Conorton he also used the name Connerton at times and always in the USA.
Patrick was born in Ireland but all I have found is his note in England that he was born at Castle Parish Durham which is wrong he was born in Ireland as shown by all his records in the USA and he and he family's word.
I will now attach what info I have available about Patrick Conoughton born 3/21/1840 Castle Parish Ireland, Patrick Connaughton and Sarah Rollason. Patrick’s surname was spelt Connorton and the marriage was registered in the December quarter of 1873. You may, of course, already have the certificate, but in case not, you can order it from the General Register Office online – www.gro.gov.uk – and the reference you need to quote is 6b 1236.
Details of 1881 Census:
Patrick Conoughton, 46 at the time of the 1881 Census, born in Castle Parish , Ireland Details of 1881 Census:
Patrick Conoughton, 46 at the time of the 1881 Census, born in Castle Parish , Ireland
Sarah Conoughton 47 at the time of the 1881 Census, born in Darlaston, Staffordshire
Samuel Conoughton, step son 16 at the time of the 1881 Census born in Walsall , Staffordshire
Sarah Conoughton, step daughter 13 at the time of the 1881 Census born in James Bridge , Staffordshire
Mary Conoughton daughter 8 at the time of the 1881 Census, born in Walsall , Staffordshire
Thomas Conoughton, son, 6 at the time of the 1881 Census, born in Walsall , Staffordshire
Catherine Conoughton, daughter, 3 at the time of the 1881 Census, born in Walsall Staffordshire
The family moved to USA Patrick worked as a bank officer and died in Chicago, Il
So I am looking for a Castle Parish Ireland or any spelling that might be close .
I see that Griffiths show Conoughtons in Roscommon, Longford, Westmeath, Sligo, Galway, Monaghan and Cavan
Thank you so much I will try looking at castle kinkenny, Erick
Can anyone recommend where to look.

Hi,
Looks like it could have been a relative, I did pay a lady Aoife LA to retrieve and send me the Weding certificate.
She e-mailed me this:This is what is stated.
marriage date 8th Dec. 1873 Patrick Connorton and Sarah Rollorson (Batchelor and Widow) Patrick a Colliery labourer.
Both living at Red Lion Street, Walsall.
Father of Patrick - Leighton Connorton - weaver
Father of Sarah - James Redy (looks like Redy) - Waggoner
Marriage took place at St Patrick's R.C. Walsall.
The couple make their mark X.
Witnesses - Patrick Carroll and what looks like Mary Banton.
Slán, Aoife.
XXXX
However she has ne3ver mailed me the Certificate and I am not sure of her worthyness as she has never replied.
Erick

You have just beat me to it Heywood and I think you have cracked it . Cashel is a stone fort, thus Cashel and Castle more or less have the same meaning and Longford is the only County in Ireland with a parish named Cashel.

One of my most treasured possesions is the 'General Alphabetical Index to the Townlands and Towns, Parishes and Baronies of Ireland' (1851) and I can assure you there is no other parish in Ireland named or beginning with Cashel. There are numerous townlands commencing Cashel and there is the town of Cashel in Co Tipperary but only one parish.
Also, Lackey is definitely a pet name for Loughlin, a name I have encountered several times.
