My family will be staying on Inis Mór from 23 May to 27 May. My mom and I descend from Inis Meáin and Inis Oírr, and we will also be looking to visit those two islands during our stay, too. I'm having trouble figuring out how to travel between the islands; the ferry times don't seem to line up for us to spend any time on the other two. Are there alternatives to get back and forth from Inis Mór to Inis Meáin on Thursday and then from Inis Mór to Inis Oírr Friday (or vice versa) with at least several hours to spend on each? I'd even be willing to do some kind of charter - my mom recalls riding on the curraghs when she visited 50 years and is eager to do that again, but I'd be glad to just get her there!

It’ll cost more, but also be faster if you look at flying with Aer Arran. They shuttle back and forth between their airport west of Galway and the islands. Not sure how their schedules correlate with your Thursday and Friday itinerary, but look at https://aerarannislands.ie/ .

Look on the websites of the two Doolin ferry companies. At least one of them (The Doolin Ferry Company) has information on inter-island sailings on its website. Look for the tab that says "one way - inter island." If the information isn't sufficient or clear, you might contact the ferry company for more details.
