Civil registration of births was required starting 1864, so Ryan's birth should have been recorded. You can search at irishgenealogy.ie.

Denise:
The tree you shared shows John Ryan was born in Belfast. I went on the site that Patricia cited for the years 1870-1880 and there were 982 John Ryan baptismal records registered in Ireland in that time period. However, only 2 of the 982 were in the Belfast registration district.
See the third record on this link https://civilrecords.irishgenealogy.ie/churchrecords/images/birth_return... for a John Ryan born in Belfast on January 28 1876. Possible lead.
