Ann, have a look on these websites:

Valuation which was a land valuation around 1850s has an index at :
http://www.failteromhat.com/griffiths.php

www.eastmayo.org

Do you know his wife's maiden name?  You could get the birth certificate of Bridget and that would tell you.   

Bridget FLatley  b. March 1860  Kidderminster  Vol No: 6c  Page No: 276
She may have been born 1859, but was registered 1860.

regards
Dee

 Hello Ann.
      The South Mayo site. Has Baptims for John Flatley Born 1836
Father's  initial's  J.F.
Mother    Initial    C.----

 They also have a Margaret Boyle Born 1859 Baptism
Father  Initial's F.B.
mother Initial   B G.
Now to look at these it will cost you three credits.  each They will tell you the parish and also the sponsors names.
