    Looks like Timothy and Hanora Sweeney to me.

    What does the transcription on Irishgenealogy suggest it is?

    This could be Patrick & Elizabeth in 1911:

    census.nationalarchives.ie/pages/1911/Dublin/Wood_Quay__part_of_/Garden_Terrace/80814/

    Patrick is a pensioner of the Royal Munster Fusiliers - who were in occupation of Wellington Barracks c.1892/3, the time of his marriage.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Griffith_Barracks

    If so, then, though at the time of Patrick's marriage, his parents were living in Limerick, the family were from Cork. This may be Patrick's parents in 1901:

    census.nationalarchives.ie/pages/1901/Limerick/Limerick_North_Rural/Shannabooly/1496099/

    This indicates that they were both from Boherbue in Co. Cork. There was a Patrick Cronin born in 1867 in Knockmanagh townland, close to Boherbue (Kanturk RD), whose parents were Timothy, a dairy man, & Honora, formerly Sweeney.
