There is presently an exhibit at the Historical Society of Rockland called "Rockland's Catholic Heritage", and a Journal Newspaper article about it can be read at http://www.thejournalnews.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article?AID=2007703090407 You are correct that the probable church the McQuaids would have been associated with is St. Peter's in Haverstraw, and the Genealogical Society has information on its history at http://rocklandgenealogy.org/rcchurches.htm Records of marriages and births at the town/village level were not kept before 1881, and compliance was iffy for quite a few years. The church would be your best bet, and when asking for information, a donation is never amiss.
