Greetings,
I sincerely appreciate assistance in finding information on my ancestors. All were born in Galway.
John Dickson b. 1811
married Honora (Hannah) Gavin 1843 in Galway. She was born 1820.
they had four children
Matthew b 1847, Edward b. 1849, Margaret b. 1852, Patrick b. 1855.
At some point the last name was changed to Dixon.
Edward was my ggreat grandfather he died in Jeffersonville, Indiana in 1929. He married Margaret Kennedy she was b. In May 1850, in Galway.
I would love to find their parish.
Thank you,
Barbara

There are several possible baptism records for the children on RootsIreland (pay-website), Patrick in 1850 in Kilcummin RC parish (Oughterard) West Co. Galway and also Edward in 1844, and Matthew in 1842.
p.s. only Patrick is coming up a match when I add Gavin as mother's maiden name, but it's possible the others were recorded under some variation or without this detail. All three are matching mother's first name beginning with H and father's first name John
