I posted and deleted because I couldn’t find the children’s births but found James here

I can’t see these births on Irish genealogy  https://www.irishgenealogy.ie/en/

They are shown in All Ireland, Select Births and Baptisms, 1620-1911 with parents George Murphy and Mary Gallagher, Achill

Catherine 7th March 1864
Anne Murphy 1 July 1866
Margaret Murphy 27th April 1869
James Murphy 27th June 1871


Perhaps they were not submitted - maybe Mary’s death record is missing too.

Yes I found them and just deleted/amended the post.
I was looking in the wrong registration district

Hi Thankyou
I was also looking for George and Mary marriage certificate I know George was from Saila I'm sure Mary nee Gallagher would have also lived nearby on the island I really appreciate your help

I just checked and Newport registration district was included in Westport after 1886. That is where I was going wrong.

If George and Mary married before 1864, which it looks as though they did, you would be searching for parish records as registration of civil marriages did not begin until 1864

Catholic records for Achill - marriages begin in 1867

I noticed that earlier records sometimes are registered in Newport and then in westport I used to get very confused also if the catholic marriages starts in 1867 and George and Mary got married before this which I think is the case there will not be a record of there marriage and which is a shame
Thankyou for your reply

Is this another son born pre-civil registration?
