Fahan RC Parish includes Burt and Inch.  Also google werelate.org Sheerin. This was set up by the Doherty inishowen project but quite a few Sheerin's on it. I tried without success contacting the authors and someone ales advised that it was not all accurate. However interesting in the amount of Sheerin,s listed.

Roots Ireland.ie have a marriage of a sweeney to a Mary Jane Sheerin on 20th December 1861 in Fahan which is right beside Burt--both are just south of Buncrana on the west side of the Inishowen Pennisula. Rootsireland is a subscription website with typed copies of Church Records. I ve come across errors previously on it and I ve seen errors on original Church records. Root Ireland give the grooms Christain name as John which is also the brides father's name. The grooms father's name is not on this transcript. It is Catholic wedding. Her address is 'Millainy' which is likely a mispelling  of Mullaney and his Fahan. Likely townlands in the same Parish.
