Some records (baptisms only at the moment) for the RC parish of Bray are available on the pay-website of the Irish Family History Foundation at - http://www.rootsireland.ie/

You dont mention where you are located, but the records for the parish are available in the National Library in Dublin on microfilm.

I think the address would be Vevay Road..

for some details on Irish records see : Introduction to Irish Records

Do you have any approximate dates for your Murphy and Sweeny family marriage or births ?

If after the start of full civil registration (1864) it would be easier to start with the Civil records (i.e. birth & marriage certs), or if even more recent maybe they would be listed on the 1901 or 1911 census ..
