Ireland / Re: Did married women in 18th/19th century Ireland go by their maiden name?

Thank you all!
The ancestor in question didn't migrate, her daughter did. I've found 4 records probably all related to the same woman in County Monaghan, who has the name as my x4 great grandmother. My x3 great grandmother married in County Tyrone. Geographically, it's possible that there's a connection as the counties are close.
I wonder if anyone can help me trace the name of the parish where my x3 great grandmother married. On her son's Scottish birth record the parish is written as "Parish of Drunmore, Co Tyrone, Ireland" (they married in 1855). It's probably a Roman Catholic parish. Unfortnately, due to the differing accents the registrar has spelt it wrong, but I wonder what it should be.
Happy New Year, all!
