Hello dun1592can,
I'm not related but located the church marriage index for Michael Walsh and Anne
Carney, as well as the birth and or baptism indexes for six of their children at the Irish
Family History Foundation (IFHF) website for County Mayo.
The marriage index shows that Michael and Catherine were married in the Keelogues Catholic
Church in 1859.
The index is below:

There won't be a civil registration marriage index for Michael and Anne as the
government in Ireland didn't commence with the recording of births, marriages, and
deaths for all religious denominations until 1864. The government did however, record
Protestant marriages from 1845.
Next is information about the children of Michael Walsh and Anne Carney. These children
and their years of birth are:
William (1866); twins Anne and Bridget (1868); Patrick (1872); Catherine (1875); and
Margaret (1879). Michael and Anne may have had more children than I found at the IFHF
website. They were married in 1859, but I didn't find information about any of their
children until William in 1866, seven years after they were married.
Concerning the indexes for the children, I uncovered the baptism index, but not the birth
index for William in 1866, as well as the baptism indexes for the twins Anne and Bridget
in 1868. However, I also found the Civil Registration birth indexes for Anne and Bridget
dated 1869, rather than 1868. This is an indication that they had been born in December of
1868, but that their births were not registered until 1869, after the Christmas and New
Year's holidays. I also found the civil birth index for Patrick in 1872, the birth
and baptism indexes for Catherine in 1875, and the baptism index for Margaret in 1879. In
the index for Margaret below you'll see that her name is abbreviated as Margt. This is
how her name was likely recorded in her original baptism record.
Concerning Catherine, you'll see that her baptism index is dated 1875 and her civil
birth index dated 1876. Once again this implies that she was born and baptized toward the
end of 1875, but that her birth wasn't recorded until early in 1876. You'll also
see that in Catherine's baptism index (but not her birth index), that her mother
Anne's maiden name is spelled "Carny," whereas in all the other baptism and
birth indexes for the children, Anne's maiden name is spelled Carney.
You'll also see that all the baptisms took place in the Keelogues Catholic Church, and
that the births were recorded in the Balla District:

The IFHF homepage can be found at:
http://www.rootsireland.ie/
Before accessing indexes at the IFHF you'll first have to register. Registration is
free. You'll also be able to access the marriage index for Michael Walsh and Anne
Carney, as well as the birth and baptism indexes for their children for free, but you will
be charged to obtain transcriptions of the records from the IFHF. You'll have to
purchase credits with a credit card to obtain the transcriptions. The IFHF website has
more information about purchasing credits for baptism, as well as birth, marriage, and
death or burial transcriptions at:
http://www.rootsireland.ie/index.php?id=78
One advantage of ordering records from the IFHF is that as soon as credit card information
is processed, the records are sent to your computer, so that you don't have to wait
very long to view them.
