Kaye , I can relate to your lack of info !.. I have found nobody who is interested in my 'BROWN' folk in Grafton Th Marriage Certificate Gave no parents' names or Occupations , no Birthplaces of the Bride and Groom , , no Ages of the Bride and Groom..... The entry alongside each of the above ,simply read 'Unknown'. So,all we can learn from the document (1867/002171 ) is the fact that John Brown and Mary Reilly , each of North Grafton , were married 'according to the rites of the Roman Catholic Church ' , 18th October 1867. The witnesses were ISAAC COOK and ANN COOK I note you have an interest in the COOK surname and wonder if there is a connection here ?
