Hello Patrick:
You have some work to do searching the naturalization papers, censuses, etc, for DOB, DOM, placename(s), etc.
I research the Irish Family History Foundation's database. It contains 12,000,000 surviving rcds for abt 65% of Irish counties. Rcds are increasingly sparse B4 1840, rare B4 1800.
Note 1 - Without a KNOWN county, the chance of an ancestor's rcds NOT being in this database is AT LEAST 35%.
Note 2 - Only 1/2 of Co. Cork's rcds are in this database.
Note 3 - The RC church kept control over most parish rcds from Tipperary (north). These are ONLY available thru the Tipperary Family History Research center at a substantial fee (regardless of outcome).
For James Conroy B 1825 +/- 4 yrs somewhere in Ireland with the father's forename unknown, I found 17 rcds: 1821 Tyrone, 1821 Roscommon, 1821 Galway, 1822 Dublin, 2-1822 Roscommon, 1823 Sligo, 1823 Galway, 1824 Kildare, 1825 Sligo, 1826 Mayo, 1827 Rocommon, and 1829 Dublin. Will let you visit the database and find the corresponding father's forenames.
For James Conroy M 1850 ditto, I found 9 rcds: 1822 Louth, 1823 Tipperary, 1823 Dublin, 1823 Tyrone, 1828 Galway, 2-1828 Roscommon, 1828 Mayo, and 1829 Galway. This assumes he married in Ireland. Your research should confirm or refute this assumption.
Google the Foundation's name to lead you to this database. Register, opt to be notified as rcds are added and browse. Pls post your search results to my genforum msg.
Hope this helps. Good luck.
