If you apply for the birth records of any of their children born in England or Wales it will have the Mother's maiden name on it, for confirmation of the marriage posted.

Rootsireland.ie returns 1 result for a baptism of John Donovan, father Cornelius in Co Cork, in 1846. But you would need credits to view the record to establish if it is the correct one.

It gives a better indication of his birth place, but I wonder if he meant he had been married 14 years when his wife died? His sister born same place.

John and Johanna were married in Ireland in 1868
Their son Cornelius was born in Wales in 1875 ..................... so we may assume that John and Johanna moved to Wales some time between 1868 and 1875 .............
unfortunately there are no shipping records from Ireland to England ......... the ships are more ferries, and records were often not kept.
