Possible Marriage US

[artisann]

Looking for a marriage between John Davitt and Catherine Banahan about 1910, Catherine came from Roscommon Ireland, Information given to me is that Johns mother was born in Ireland, according to the 1920 US Census. John and Catherine lived at ?003 or 663 10th Ave NY,
What I would like to know is did Catherine and John marry in the US...and can anyone help in finding a record of the marriage if they did, I believe Catherine died in 1956 NY.
Thanks for reading
