Ireland was part of Great Britain in 1910 and so it would be the British army that he served with, even though he was of Irish birth. You could try armed forces marriages overseas on find my past if it is the marriage you are trying to find. For his army record, you could try the army records at Kew, or look on the national Archives site Jay
