My great grandmother, Jane Tyner, was born in Cork County in 1837. She married John Smith (born in Sheerness, Kent, England) in Clonmel on 24 May 1858. Her father was Richard Tyner. Her first two children, Rebecca Jane and John Joseph, were born in Ireland but her next four children were born on the Isle of Wight where John was a coastguard.
I haven't been able to find any details of Jane's siblings or parents nor her date of death but I think she died in Portsmouth.
Any information or suggestions as to where I could find some more details about Jane would be greatly appreciated.

Good Afternoon
Welcome to Ireland Reaching Out and apologies for the delay in replying to your message.
Unfortunately, it may be difficult to find information without a more specific place of origin. Most Irish record sources- church records, land records, census records- are based on specific locations. Until you know a specific location within Ireland, preferably a parish or placename, it may be difficult to do anything more with these records.
You do, however, mention Clonmel, located in St. Mary?s, a Civil Parish of Tipperary
The records for the corresponding Parish of St. Peter and Paul?s in Clonmel begin in 1836. As an aside, there is another Clonmel, located in Co. Offaly and part of the Roman Catholic Parsh of St. Mary's Clonmel, is acutally located in Co. Waterford.
There are some places where you can search online, however these websites do not have complete collections and many do not cover the period after 1900:
www.familysearch.org has a huge database of genealogical records including some church records for Ireland.
www.rootsireland.ie have a large collection of Irish Church records, however you have to pay to use this site.
http://churchrecords.irishgenealogy.ie/churchrecords/ have begun a project to upload Irish church records to their site free of charge. However so far only Counties Dublin, Kerry, Carlow and parts of Cork have been covered.
Some other websites that may be helpful are:
The National Archives of Ireland: http://www.nationalarchives.ie/genealogy1/genealogy-records/introduction/ - you can search the 1901/1911 Census on the National Archives page too
The National Library of Ireland: http://www.nli.ie/en/family-history-introduction.aspx
Ask About Ireland: http://www.askaboutireland.ie/griffith-valuation/ where you can see the Griffith?s Valuation for free

Are your Tyner family Protestant of Catholic? My father has an atDNA match to a Tyner family from Cork. Our incommon matches from Cork are primarily people whose ancestors were Methodists.
