Hello Lep. Have you had a look on:

if I've worked this out correctly then there is only a narrow time-frame to check for the marriage of Michael and Sarah.
Sarah is 60 in 1901, so born about 1841
assuming Sarah was at least 17 when she married then the earliest for the marriage would be 1858
eldest daughter Janie on the 1901 return is 37, so born about 1864
So the marriage is probably between 1858 and 1864, just before full Civil Registration for Catholics started. If they were Church or Ireland or other non-Catholic then they should be included in the familysearch Civil index : http://pilot.familysearch.org/recordsearch/start.html#p=2;t=searchable;c=1408347
I suppose the most likely location for the marriage would either be Co. Mayo or Sarah's home county of Sligo. Parish transcripts for both these counties are available on the pay-site of the Irish Family History Foundation - www.irish-roots.ie They charge €5 to view each record transcript.
there are 5 possible marriage matches between 1858 and 1864 on the free index, (2 in Sligo, 3 in Mayo) but there's no way on the site to cross check the partners name without paying for the record..
