There are three births in Waterford - John, Margaret and Patrick. Is that your family?

John's birthplace is shown as Killea/Killen; Waterford and Rose Lane. That may help you trace his parentage perhaps.

Griffiths Valuation shows Diggins in Dunmore, Killea.

It was a survey of property ownership around 1850s. It is limited but can give an idea re places. http://www.askaboutireland.ie/griffith-valuation/

Got John and Bridgets Marriage cert from Rosscommon

Now need Johns birth Cert He was born about 1849

 His father was John and he was born Waterford He was a Pilot on the river as was John

Can anyone advise me where I can get this from

Civil registration of births in Ireland started in 1864 so there will be no birth certificate for anyone born before that date. For earlier dates you need to search for church records.

Thanks for that

 Where do I find Church Records?
