The record is from www.rootsireland.ie/ (subscription site). There is only 1 other & it's 29 Mar 1830 baptism.
The day & month look right - day after birth & the year is very close - there were a lot of erors in the records.
There are no marriage records for Clare on roots I'm afraid.
The National Library has free R C parish records online (registers.nli.ie) and Sixmilebridge is there baptisms 1828 to 1839 & marraiges 1829 to 39 so you might want to trawl through those.

Many thank Roger, much appreciated. I'm not at all confident in finding my way through the website and records sites. I'll keep at it - maybe ill have beginners luck!!!
I have a John McInerney in my family tree. Born/baptised in Cratloe January 1832. Father John McInerney Mother Anne O'Brien (maybe it should be Hanna?) His brother is Matthew (my Great Grandfather). They migrated to Australia in 1856 and settled in the Tower Hill area.
