Jan, There are two organizations that are seeking to combine the records of the churches around Cork City, and will do a search for you for a small fee. One seems to concentrate on C of I records and the other, I believe, is concentrating on Catholic records. The organization that I dealt with to find the Protestsant marriage record of my ancestors is called the Cobh Genealogical Porject, in Cobh, County Cork. They provide an excellent service. I beleive the one collecting Catholic records is associated with the County Cork Library, but I have not dealt with them. Anyway, use of these organizations is ideal if you know that the record is in Cork City or nearby but do not know the precise parish.

Tim, Do you have an email address or website details for the Cobh Genealogical Project or County Cork Library.
