Casey:
I searched Roots Ireland www.rootsireland.ie and they did not have any James Dunn baptismal records or civil birth records with parents Bernard and Margaret for the years 1865-1869.
I'd be inclined to say that James was born in the USA.
I also looked for a marriage record for Bernard and Margaret from 1850-1860 on Roots with no success. A good number of churches do not have marriage records that go back to 1850-1860 so it is likely they were married in one of those churches.
