I am trying to determine whether my ancestor Michael Lockwood was from Clonmel County Cork or Clonmel Tipperary. He was born in 1832 and he married Johanna (maher) who was born around 1839. Any information from the church records would be helpful.

Hi Betsy,
I couldn't find a birth/baptism record for Michael in any county on www.rootsireland.ie
There are 6 matches for Joanna Maher born 1839 + - 1 year - all in Tipperary
I did find the marriage of Michael Lockwood to ---- Maher in 1859 Tipperary The parish was not Clonmel however
In the Tithe Applotments 1823-37 which are free to search online there are no Lockwoods in Cork but 16 in Tipperary
There are 43 Mahers in Cork but 1072 in Tipperary so the weight of the evidence seems to point to Tipperary
I rechecked rootsireland and found a James Lockwood born 1833 in Tipperary
The records cost on rootsireland but the marriage record will give you the parish and the fathers' names
