With thanks to Roots chat people I have found some of my ancestors but now I am trying to find when my great great great grandparents, Timothy Quinn married Mary Byrne. I have found baptism records for their children, Elizabeth b 18.09.1815, Anne b 07.04.1817 and Thomas b 17.12.1819, so presume that the parents were married perhaps the year before. The children were baptised in Templemore, Tipperary and are Roman Catholic.
I also would love to find records of Timothy Quinn and his wife, Mary Byrne's baptism record but that would be in the 1700's so records may not go back that far.
Thanks

Have you searched the online parish registers yet? marriages for Templemore start 1807. remember that marriages usually take place in the bride's church so they may not have married in the same place where the children were baptised.

Thank you for your reply. I have looked at the Parish registers for their marriage but no luck. However I found their children's baptism entries with a bit more information. The father was a labourer and they must have lived in Mary Street at one stage.
Thanks again.

I was told by a lady at Bru Boru that Northern Tipperary is slow at putting their records online so you might want to check back every month to see if anything new was added.
Good luck,

P.S. You might want to consider checking a neighboring county depending on how close the family is in relation to the county line. E.g. my family is found in both Tipperary and Waterford.

Thank you Bikerchick64. I will check Northern Tipperary again.
