Thank you for that additional information and consideration in searching for burials.

The associated godparents seem to be Nancy Steel, Thomas Steel and Ann/Anna Steel.  I imagine her father must have been Thomas.

Nothing coming up on Family Search as they have some of the Catholic marriages.

Honour your female ancestors by remembering to record woman by their maiden name.
