Hi,
   You can see Jane Gowland in the Griffiths Valuation of 1858. See http://www.askaboutireland.ie/griffith-valuation/index.xml

The Jane Gowland mentioned in Griffith may be the Jane Golan of Rathmullan married to a William McGrory who had several children baptised in the 1860's and 70's (Or possibly her daughter)

I see from your other threads that she was married to Peter McManus who died in Durham in 1858, and that she lived in Gilesgate around that time.

There's a police report in the Durham County Advertiser of 1 April 1859 (page 3) about a Margaret McManus of Gilesgate whose second husband had died 7 months previously. She had brought a complaint of ill-usage against her daughter from her first marriage Catherine Rooney.

There's a Catherine Rooney aged 18 in the 1861 census, a lodger with Thomas Hardy and family at 143 Gilesgate, Durham. Birthplace Wigan, Lancs.

There are online trees for Catherine Rooney born Wigan in March 1842. Child of Daniel Rooney and Margaret Golding. Catherine married James Sewell in Durham in December 1861.
