Have moved your thread to Dublin board but John Burke would have been born well before the start of civil registration in Ireland since his son was born in 1870. You really do need to check through all possible English records before starting Irish research.
Richard Burke's birth certificate should list names of both parents, once you have their names and ages of children (from census records) you can start looking for their marriage in England (Free BMD) or Ireland (church records possibly).
Away sorting out DNA matches... I may be gone for some time many years!
