There is one O'Shea master tailor that I saw in the town - but his name was Patrick..he's single and too young - see : link

This looks like Michael's baptism on IrishGenealogy
 
  Baptism of Michael Shea - 16 September 1866   
  Address : Capp.
  Parents : Bartholomew Shea & Hanora Casey
  Dromod RC parish

and the extracted birth record is at : link

Gives date of birth as 10 Sep 1866, and 'Emlagh District' as place of birth. These locations are often sub-districts rather than actual townlands. The page reference is 048, which you can use to match up with an Index record to order a research cert. This will show more details such as place of birth and father's occupation...

just wondering - if you dont have a cert how do you know for sure that this is the correct birth ?

Hi Shane
I have a copy of 1911 census
for Bartholomew and Honoria Shea
they have 2 children Michael 17 years and Catherine 13 years
I think he is related to my Michael B
I think this is the Michael you found the birth for
Bartholomew and Honora King got married on the same page as
Michael B and Margaret O'Reilly
O'Shea. Tailors of Caherciveen. Co Kerry Eire.

here's that family on the 1911 census :

   Shea household - 1911

I'm not sure I get what you mean by 'I think he is an uncle to my Michael B' -  do you mean Bartholomew ?

Michael aged 17 yrs would be born abt 1894. Shane found one born 1866.

Amongst the possible spouses on the same page as Michael B and Margaret, there is a Bartholomew O' Shea and Honora King. They may not be spouses to each other, but they are possible candidates for the family in 1911.

That family are here in 1901 Batt Shea 1901

It is quite possible that Bartholomew and Michael are brothers, rather than uncle and nephew
