    The official spelling of the townland is Reavouler in Kilmacabea civil parish.

    Baptismal and marriage records for Kilmacabea/Leap RC parish start in June 1832      https://registers.nli.ie/parishes/0067

    I searched on the subscription site FindMyPast.ie and located one baptismal record for a younger brother of Mary McCarthy.

    Denis McCarthy baptized January 16 1845 father Denis McCarthy mother Honora Nyhan Residence Revoulder.

    I located the marriage record for Bartholomew and Mary.

    Bartholomew Brien married Mary McCarthy on March 4 1862 at Kilmacabea/Leap RC parish.  Bartholomew was from Dunmanway and Mary from Reavouler.

    I also located a baptism for John.  John Brian baptized January 2 1863 at Dunmanway. Father Batt Brian Mother Mary McCarthy

    Let me know if you have any questions.

    The 1901 census had two McCarthy families in Reavouler. The head of household for the first family was Patrick and since his oldest son was Denis, it is very likely Patrick was a brother to Mary.

    1911 census for Patrick. His wife was deceased.

    Finding possible relatives with the surname McCarthy will be difficult. Maybe you can post a request in this newspaper https://www.southernstar.ie/  and you might get someone to respond.
