Michael McCann
in the Ireland, Catholic Parish Registers, 1655-1915
Name: Michael McCann
Gender: Male
Event Type: Marriage
Marriage Date: Mar 1894
Marriage Place: Swineford, Mayo, Ireland
Parish Variants: Kilconduff, Kilconduff and Meelick, Meelick, Meelick and Kilconduff, Swinford
Diocese: Achonry
Spouse: Brigida Mulley


If this is the right marriage, the image shows Bridget's name as Brigida Mulley Caskie.

The witnesses were Thomas McCann and Julia Kilfallin [?]


EDIT:

Ah no - Caskie is the name of Bridget's place of origin.

EDIT AGAIN:

and, on closer inspection, it's Cashel, not Caskie. It's part of Swineford.

Thank you for your reply .Argylgran .and help .

Unfortunately, there are too many people called Bridget Molloy / Mulloy or Michael McCann to identify their births and therefore their parents with any accuracy.

This baptism matches what you've said about Michael, but I can't say if this is him or not:

Michael McCann
in the Ireland, Catholic Parish Registers, 1655-1915
Name: Michael McCann
Baptism Age: 0
Event Type: Baptism
Birth Date: 6 Sep 1857
Baptism Date: 18 Sep 1857
Baptism Place: St Michan's, Dublin city, Dublin, Ireland
Residence Place: Florinda Place
Parish Variants: North Anne St., St. Michan's, Nth. Anne Street
Diocese: Dublin
Father: Joseph McCann
Mother: Margt McSanty

The date of birth or baptism you give for Bridget doesn't produce any results on Ancestry.

Here's just one of many possibles in Mayo (from Family Search), but again, I can't say if this is her or not. It's a pity the marriage record didn't include fathers' names!:
