Exactly where did the marriage take place?

Finding place of burial can sometimes be difficult , especially if there's no headstone. Usually only the Church of Ireland recorded burials.
Have you traced all the children and their descendants? sometimes families kept using the same plot and descendants will have details you don't yet know.

Now that we have the correct family we can start looking in various places for more details.

In that case... "Francis Connor" was Frances.

Fanny Connor was a witness to marriage of George & Agnes (records for their children have confirmed grandmother as Lena Connor of Tullyballydonnell).

Frances Connor married (1881 Lurgan Registry Office) Thomas McDonnell

That's correct also. Now the other Francis I am looking for information on is. Francis Connor abt 1904
The parents are Henry Connor and Mary Carlisle. Henry is the brother of Francis

Francis Connor born Collinward not Drumnadrough- mother Carroll rather than Carlisle-

Mary Alice's birth also gives maiden name as Carroll-

Now I'm really confused as on the Marriage for Henry and Mary Ann, it states Carlisle. Though what you're saying could explain it. I am now wondering if I have the right marriage.

After a further check, there is no other marriage, so that would suggest that Carlisle is a misprint of Carroll.
