Greetings Ralph,
Many thanks for the help. I took you advise and searched the records. A bit of an overlap in methods but had to see how the search engine logic worked. I did the search again using Bridget and there were a few Ireland-wide near the right birth year. Then I used the father's name John and it narrowed to County Louth. I did the same for Catherine. I then searched parish by parish and the only one that came up with a Bridget and Catherine with a father named John was Carlingford. Bridget's bith date differs from one we have so I also did a search on her middle name Agnes and did not come up with anyone. The only other Bridgets were way too old. So I ordered the records online and found that John married Anne Reilly and that they had Catherine and Bridget. Anne died in 1872 and John married Catherine Toal. She is the mother of Patrick. This fits as John had a rather large family at that time. That information comes from daughter who has been staying in Dundalk on and off. On her last visit she went to Carlingford parish and the Priest gave her a copy of the page with all the O'Hare baptisms and the one with the marriages. John and Anne had 8 kids then she past away. John married again in 1874. What gets problematic is that the record for Peter has another mother listed. It is possible that Catherine died and John got married again; however I find no record to support that other than a marriage of a John to Elizabeth Montgomery in 1880. It is also possible that they moved but there is a burial record for a John O'Hare in .1885. It does seem like the Reilly family and O'Hare family were friends as some of the siblings of John and Anne are witnesses for marriages and sponsors for baptisms. Here is what I have:
