I have created this file to draw together events in the early 1800s which may (or may not) be relevant to the Dunnes.
Selected Catholic Parish Registers are available on the National Library of Ireland website (http://register.nli.ie). Those available for the parish of Newinn and Knockgraffon cover Marriages from 1798 to 1883 and Baptisms from 1820 to 1881.
The Tithe Applotment Books (1823 - 1837) are available on the National Archives of Ireland website (http://titheapplotmentbooks.nationalarchives.ie).
Griffiths Valuation (1843 - 1856) is available on the Ask About Ireland website (http://www.askaboutireland.ie/griffith-valuation/).
1803 April 19 William Dunn and Margaret Quirk married in Newinn, witnesses Dimitrius Quirk and Catherine Ahern. (2502/2 page 10)
There is a gap in the Register of Marriages after August 6, 1818, then one page of entries for January 30 & 31, 1819 before normal service is resumed on August 3, 1819.

The Tithe Applotments are a survey of agricultural land in Ireland to define the amount to be paid by each farmer towards tithes collected for the maintenance of the Church of Ireland. They were compiled progressively across the country between 1823 and 1837. Parish boundaries are civil or Church of Ireland parishes which do not coincide with Roman Catholic parishes. Acres are Irish acres, equivalent to 1.62 English acres.
The only Dunn(e) entries which show up in the parish of Knockgraffon (which includes Carrigeen), are —
Name Townland Parish Acres (A.R.P) Tithe Year Dunn, John (Edmond) Loughkent Knockgraffon 2-0-23 5/4d 1825 Dunn, Widow (John Lonergan) Marlhill Knockgraffon 1-0-4 2/4½d 1825 Dunn, Edward Marlhill Knockgraffon 4-3-22 11/3½d 1825 There are no Dunn(e) entries in Carrigeen or Rockwell, or in the parishes of Boytonrath and Killeenasteena.
1850 In the General Valuation of Rateable Property in Ireland (usually known as Griffith's Valuation), Edward Dunne is shown as the occupier of 4 (English) acres of land with a house thereon, in the Townland of Carrigeen in the (civil) Parish of Knockgraffon, Poor Law Union of Cashel, Barony of Middlethird in County Tipperary. His immediate lessor is Robert Carew, Esq. and the net annual value of the property is given as £3-7-0d comprising £2-15-0d for land and £0-12-0d for buildings. The next entry is for a vacant house, immediate lessor Edward Dunne and net annual value £1-0-0d.
I also noticed a John Dunne occupying a house and yard in Holycross Town, Parish of Holycross rented from Michael Power, Esq. with net annual value £1-6-0d.
There are several Tobins (but no Lyons) in Boytonrath (Townland and Parish), William, Patrick and John all renting house, offices and land plus David renting just land, all from Reps. Wm. Roe, Esq.
