The Parish records don't start until 1868
https://registers.nli.ie/parishes/0657
but the civil records start 1864 for births https://civilrecords.irishgenealogy.ie/churchrecords/civil-search.jsp
the registration district is Tralee https://www.swilson.info/regdistmap.php?gregdistid=154

Date of Birth   17 January 1862 (BASED ON OTHER DATE INFORMATION)
Address   KNOCKINIGHOUN

Just a thought obit states native of Killarney Brosna would not be considered in the Killarney area .What is your source for Brosna ?

Cert?
