I seem to recall that one of the sites had a facility to list all the names on a single page. Can anyone else confirm?
FindMyPast I think

FindMyPast on most searches show all four/eight names as does Ancestry
FindMyPast recently started showing matches however they are not always correct as I have found out
Kearney & Bourke/ Johns & Fox/ Mannion & Finan/ Donohoe & Curley
Byrne [Carthy], Keeffe/ Germaine, Butler/ McDermott, Giblin/ Lally, Dolan
Toole, Doran; Dowling, Grogan/ Reilly, Burke; Warren, Kidd [Lawless]/ Smith, Scally; Mangan, Rodgers/ Fahy, Calday; Staunton, Miller
Further generations:
Brophy Coleman Eathorn(e) Fahy Fitzpatrick Geraghty Haverty Keane Keogh Nowlan Rowe Walder

Thanks you all again. 

I have had some success with the civil records on the website recommended by sinaan with earlier births and marriages which is great.   Occasionally I search for a name and it comes back with zero matches when I feel sure the record must be somewhere.  I am sure it's something that I am doing wrong.

???
If it's IrishGenealogy the filter seems to get clogged up, use the start a new search and remember the year limits, eg. No births after 1915 at the moment.

Hello

Thank you.  That is interesting about clogging up, that's what it feels like.  I will start afresh.

What year is the earliest marriage I can search for in Mayo? 

My lack of knowledge of Districts is hampering me :-[.  I recognise Westport and Newport but don't know any others.  The place these people I think were living at the time is Achill, which seems to cover the latter districts. 

 ::) I am dodging between husband's family in Galway and son in law's family in Mayo.

Civil registration of non-Catholic marriages started 1845 (from 1864 for Catholic marriages) but for earlier dates it really just depends on what church records survive.

If they were Catholic see if the register is online-

Away sorting out DNA matches... I may be gone for some time many years!
