Hi Eileen
Have you tried contacting the Irish Family History Foundation here in Ireland you can contact them at www.irish-roots.ie they hold hundreds of Thousand of Births Marriages And Deaths records aswell as 1901-11 census returns you have to register with them first then you can view the lists of births/Death/mariiages of for instance Catherine Bracken or Joseph Coughlin which may vary but to view an entry you will have to pay 5 Euro.
I looked at their entries For Catherine Bracken and i found from 1804 to 1840 they had 10 entries so from a later date they may have a lot more they also have a lot of entrys for joseph Coughlin so good Luck .
