Welcome to Ireland Reaching Out!
The records for Burriscarra/Ballintober RC parish start in 1839. So if Michael and Eleanor were from that parish, baptismal records would not be available.
I searched the subscription site Roots Ireland and located a baptismal record for a daughter Mary born in 1840. See below. Did Michael and Eleanor emigrate after 1840?
