Walter Gibbons was born in the 1860's in Aughagower, Co Mayo. Anne Madden also was born in the 1860's possibly in Bunrower, Aughagower. I'm am looking for any information about their parents and siblings. I think Walter is the son of John and Bridget Gibbons and that Anne Madden is the daughter of Patrick and Bridget Carney Madden.

Below is a possible transcription of a baptismal record for Walter Gibbons in the Aghagower RC church. The father's name was Austin. I did not find a baptismal record for Anne in the Aghagower record and I searched from 1860-1869. I did find a possible record in the Aglish church records (see below). Here is a link to the parish register for Aghagowere/Aughagower. Let me know if these records are correct or if you have any questions.

Thank you for the information. The names were common back then, I must continue to research.
