The 'IrishGenealogy' website has the 1895 church marriage record for Martin Finegan and Maria Murphy - it identifies both parents for bride and groom:
- James Finegan & Mary Brennan;
- Denis Murphy and Elizabeth Care?

Same website has a transcript for a marriage of James Finegan and Mary Brannan of 33 South King Street in St. Andrews RC Church on 21 February 1860, fathers given as John Finegan and Pat Brannan, witnessed by Michael Gormley and Mary Byrne.  Just a maybe.

Added:
Here it is in the NLI collection, near bottom, both mothers called Mary, Finegan parents from Co. Meath, Brannan parents from Kilkenny:

Birth of Maurice Murphy (Maria's brother in the previously posted 1901 census return), the mother's name still looks something like like 'Care':

Added: Maria Murphy's brother Denis was born in 1887, mother's surname still looks something like 'Care'?

Added: Or is it 'Cave'?  Here is the 1871 marriage of Denis and Eliza:

Yes looking at the Maurice birth again I think it is Cave not Cox. My bad I didn't look carefully enough.

There is a baptism in Cork of an Elizabeth Cave to George and Eliza Rahilly 1846

Bit older than the census.

Speculative punt on a baptism for Elizabeth Cave, 16 December 1846, top of right page, parents George Cave and Eliza Rahilly (St. Peter and Paul's Cork):

Thanks so much Gaffy and Sinann!
I can't believe how much you've managed to find, really really pleased
I thought i was good but Irish records i do seem to struggle with
It's mainly the Finnegan's that I am interested in but those other finds with the Murphy's are great too.
Expecting some updates from the Grandson of Maurice Finnegan today hopefully and he may be able to confirm what looks like Maurice Finnegan's death I've managed to find in 1953 in Dublin which matches with a birth of around 1896 that also matches your finds  :) ;D
Thanks again
