Yes I have the marriage cert. for David and Christina.
David's father is named as Edward Cunningham.
Baptism record for Owen at St.Chads 11th May 1856

ANOTHER ERROR!!!!!!!!!!
For some reason I have Daniels father as Edward Cunningham. It must have come from somewhere but I haven't a clue from where! So no consanguinity issues I hope.
1861 census gives his place of birth as Drumrang or possibly Drumrainey.
More research and care needed.

It looks as though you may have to go through your records and see who you can link.
Perhaps look at marriages for those who you believe may be brothers to check their fathers.
Do the witness’ names help on marriage certificates?
If you can access church baptism records - Godparents’ names to check too.

I see these census entries:
1861 2157/33/26
Daniel, Anne/ie, Eluzabeth 9 yrs, Annie 2yrs all born Drumrang/y

Places beginning ‘Drumran…’

Drumraney, Westmeath perhaps the one.

Heywood, thanks for all your hard work and for the links and suggestions. I'm now going to look at that little section of my tree with a fine tooth comb before I try and delve into the Irish records and continue my research.
Best wishes

Can someone please decipher this birthplace entry in the 1871 England Census. Ancestry transcribes it as Bal Bromnor but I haven't managed to find such a place in Ireland.

But the "Ireland, Roscommon" and "Bai Bromnor" entries are on two different lines, for two different people. Why then the assumption that "Bai Bromnor" is in Ireland?
None of the other entries on that page run over from one line to the next.

If for some reason people still think it is related to Ireland, then how about the following:
If you look closely, I think you will see that it is not Bai, but Bal. That would be a version of the Anglicization of the Gaelic Baile.
With that insight, the entry would appear to be a mangling or phonetic rendition of one of the Ball... or  Bally.... townlands. Several possibilities, such as Ballyboughan?
