Always good to provide as much info as you have, what do you know already and what would you like to find out?  :)

Hi,
   I think that your couple are Francis McKenna and Ellen Gallagher. They married in 1869 in Ederney Roman Catholic Church, Irvinestown. The spelling of McKenna varies in the family search site. When doing a parent search I have used McKenna, McCanney and McCanna. These variations bring up the names and dates of birth of some of the children.

Hi gaffy,re read your post.trying to find family in tyrone in ahgaronan,I have my g/father james in Liverpool
 in 1911 census.He used the address 15 treborth st on his marriage cert. and francis mckenna dob1887 was his best man (his brother?) also at treborth st thomas dob 1874 oghilucartan fermanagh.I traced francis by dob to agharonan with my g/g/father james,then hit a brickwall so tried thomas in fermanagh,I notice his father francis was born in tyrone as was john in tirmacspird
 are they brothers I wonder? (1911 census) My g/g/father james is a widower so no chance of a birth cert for g/father james ( i've tried),so any help or pointers would be very helpful
              many thanks peter mckenna

Peter,
        My wife just pointed out this site where you can find the marriage and possibly the baptism of the children. www.igp-web.com/igparchives/index.htm
