Is that from the parish record? Who were the witnesses?
 The civil one may show residences.

It certainly looks as though Michael (Dromore) could be the son of Michael (Dunowla).

There are other Finan families in the area in different townlands but just the two Michaels possibly.

In 1911 Frank (Francis) born 1894 is shown as the grandson of Michael age 74. Also in the household are two daughters of Michael - Célia age 30 and Mary age 42. Cecilia Finan was born in 1874 at Dromore West to Michael Finan and Ann Jourdan. Mary was born in 1868 to same parents. Witness on both births was an Ellen Finan.

That record gives his year of birth as 1843 whereas you have it as 1856.
The FS record would make more sense if he was father to Margaret in 1870.
