Heywood
 His wife was Hannah. Born Leeds.
He had three children Ada Adelaide, Annie Eliza and Emily. Annie Eliza was born in India while he was serving there in the British Army and it was from his service record that I found the Mount Mellick reference.

You'd need to do some research in UK, then look in Ireland based on research results!

The marriage certificate would give you his father’s name to confirm.

Here is 1851, Bradford - family Search shows two separate entries because the census goes over two pages.

Pat Conroy  10 yrs b Ireland

Mart Conroy (census reads as Murt)
https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:SPMD-S34

If this were your family - baptism is in Rosenallis parish

According to 1851 the children are

William 6 months
All born Ireland

There are other baptisms in Rosenallis parish

You do need the marriage certificate though to confirm father’s name
