Hi, this link will take you to the Parish Records for Tullamore. The records are not indexed so you will have to trawl through them, but I have had good results.
https://registers.nli.ie/parishes/0933. Civil registration did not start until 1864 in Ireland. Non-Catholic marriages are registered from 1845.
Regards
Wendy

The search function of Irishgenealogy.ie is quite focused and can sometimes not turn up a record if a variation in the spelling is used. Also, the church registers can be difficult to interpret.
Your grandfather's first name "Keeran" is not a name I have seen used in Ireland. His original name was likely either Kieran or Ciaran. Searching for these in Irishgenealogy.ie or in the hand written parish registers may give you some options to explore.

Have you exhausted the WIKI (Ireland) in Family Search?
