Thanks for your input.
I don’t have any evidence for Johns mother’s maiden name.
I was looking at the Coleman family which settled in Knaresborough and the mother was Anna Kelly. But I discounted that family as I can’t find a John in the correct period. I made contact with a member of the knaresborough family and they did not know about my John.
I was told by my ancestor that my branch of the family were tinkers.
I have found some more clues:
Name John Coleman
Baptism Age 0
Event Type Baptism
Birth Date 1845
Baptism Date 20 May 1845
Baptism Place Lorrha and Dorrha, Tipperary, Ireland
Parish Variants Doorha, Dorrha, Durrow, Lorha, Lorha and Durrow, Lorrha and Doorha
Diocese Killaloe
Father
Michael Coleman
Mother
Bridget Hegarty
How ever I do have confirmation of the 1911census tynemouth workhouse where John Coleman is supposed to be from knocknahur Sligo. It fits with my other verified facts.
If I could even get a census of Ireland copy which had both John and Michael in then that would help. According to census records John was born 1845.
