Mike, It looks like the place you are looking for is Dunboyne. There is no Dunborne in Meath.
Possibly this is your James, even though the year is later than the one you have and the month is off by one month. Something we find over and over in genealogy is incorrect dates--in censuses, in death records, etc.
