not sure what sources you've checked already, but the best place to start your search would be with the Kerry parish records on www.irishgenealogy.ie

The website includes the marriage of Michael & Margaret in the RC parish of Ballybunion and gives Michael's residence as Tullamore townland - presumably the one in Galey civil parish. The marriage doesn't mention details of their fathers. See :

     Cox/Walsh marriage 1848

Galey civil parish is one of 5 included in Ballybunion RC parish along with Ballyconry, Kilconly, Killehenny and Lisselton. Baptism and marriage records for this parish go back to 1831.. so probably not far enough to locate a possible baptism for Michael, or the marriage of Michael snr - if this took place in the same area.
