Cappanageragh is the townland.  I was interested in knowing where the parish records were.  Sounds as if they would be only in Ballynacally town where they are buried.  The other townland is Lisnafaha which is also connected with Ballynacally.
 
The Scanlan's were in Cappanageragh and the Sheedy's were in Lisnafaha.  It was Scanlan x Sheedy.

Clondegad is the name of the civil parish and it falls within the larger RC
parish of Ballynacally. Ballynacally is also the name of a town within the RC
parish of Ballynacally but appears to be within the civil parish of Kilchreest
(I'm comparing a road atlas, which doesn't show parish boundaries, with
parish
maps, which don't show towns. I don't know where your ancestors went to

church because I don't know which church was closest to where they lived.
Some
people went to the church in the next parish because it was nearer where they
lived than their official parish church. There are no guarantees in any of
this,
but if I were you, I would begin with the Ballynacally RC records as the
likeliest bet.
