You might find him on Familysearch site, but having had a look there are quite a few possibles. It might help to have his father's name from the marriage cert.

John Holland was born in Ireland abt 1819/23, he married Mary Haswell in 1853 in Houghton Le Spring, they had a son Daniel who was my great grandfather, I don't know how to find Irish records. Does any one have any information about the family they lived in the Easington area, Daniel was born in Sunderland Tyne and wear
