McCollum's Newtonstewart

Looking for information about my greatgrandparents Andrew McCollum and Sarah McFarland. They were married on 19.2.1888. Have no details of their births or deaths.
Andrew's father was John Mcollum and Sarah's father was a John McFarland from Carrigans County Tyrone.
Any info would be appreciated.
Thank you Jenny

McCollums of Newtonstewart

Thank you Moren G for replying to me.
I have Andrew and Sarah's marriage Cert and on it it says they are both of Full age so I assume they we over 21. Andrew hasn't listed his fathers name but says he is a farmer and lived at Crosh. Sarah says her fathers name is John and he is a Farmer and they live at Carrigans.I found on the Griffiths Valuations a John McFarland Carrigans Drumragh Tyrone.I found a John McCollum on the Griffiths Valuations at Crosh.I really dont know if that means anything.
The info of Andrew's birth is another Andrew(they all seem to use the same few names very confusing) I have info this Andrew was born about 1850 because on the 1901 census it says he was a widower with 2 children and he was aged 50. My email address is rjvalentine9@hotmail.com
Thank you jenny
