RC Parish Registers
http://registers.nli.ie/
but if you have already used the other three there may not be anything new to find.

perhaps you will find something in the Will Calendars

Since you mention GRONI perhaps this refers to the area of interest?

Civil registration of births, deaths & Catholic marriages all started in 1864 so you can use GRONI & Irish Genealogy before that period. For earlier records there are different ones to look for.

Have you looked at Antrim Resources yet?

PRONI, Bill McAfee's website, Old Age Pension Claims, local newspapers, graveyards, etc. all worth checking out.
Away sorting out DNA matches... I may be gone for some time many years!
