Bernard and Marjory had a son John 1855.  If you do a parent search on IGI, more children appear.  The 1855 cert. should tell where both parents were born, hopefully not just Ireland.

Hi  Tootsie

It tells me Bernard came from Donegal on Johns birth cert and Marjory from  Ireland. Marjorys father was Charles Devine (farmer)

Have you followed Edward Devine on census, perhaps even death cert?  Census might give a more detailed place of birth(or his wife and children) . The death cert. may give his wife's surname therefore another name to work with. 

Have you looked at Ann 1861 birth for place of parents marriage?
