I have hit a brick wall trying to trace my 3rd ggrandfather, John Walsh. He had at least one son, also named John, b about 1935 who married in Birmingham Eng in 1853. His wife was Ann McEvann (also seen in various other forms, Hannah McAvan, etc) The marriage cert shows his father to be John Walsh, deceased. I do not know if he died in Ireland or England.
Any assistance would be gratefully received.

bit confused here with the birth date and marriage date

Sorry, I should have been clearer
John Walsh (or Welch) b. Co Mayo 1835
Married Ann McEvann, Birmingham, 13 March 1843, St Peter's Chapel
Marriage cert list father of John as John Walsh, deceased, black smith
Also list John McAvan, Labourer
I am trying to find information about any or all of them in Ireland before 1853
Thanks for your post
