Timothy Tubbs or Tubs Sr

When Timothy Tubbs or Tubs was born in 1797 in Carhunaclough, County Tipperary, Tipperary, Ireland, his father, Michael, was 32. He married Elizabeth Conway-Tubbs on February 7, 1837, in Youghal Arra, Tipperary, Ireland. They arrived in the US on 25 July 1855 on the Priinceton that left from Liverpool, England. They had three children in 18 years. He died on May 26, 1867, in Lima, New York, at the age of 70, and was buried there.

I believe Timothy's dad was Michael Tubbs (b 1765?-?). I can find anything about his mother. He is my 2nd great-grandfather and I'm trying to locate any siblings or family that remained in Ireland or may have relocated elsewhere. Any help would be very much appreciate.

His first born, Michael (1826-1906) may have born in Dublin. Second son Timothy Jr (1837-1913) borin in Tipperary and John R (1844-1889) somewhere in Ireland.

 Timothy Tubbs Sr. was my wife's 2nd great-grandfather also and grew up in Lima New York where the Tubbs family settled. My unanswered mystery is if son Michael was born in 1826 but Timothy and Elizabeth weren't married until 1837, was Michael from a previous marriage?
