Gahan - Canada, Montreal

Gahan - Canada, Montreal

Surnames: Farley,Jones, Dean, Leonard
Looking for information on the following Gahans. The information I have is very sparse:
Richard Gahan Sr born about 1848, Ireland, married Mary Farley, had a son also name Richard Jr, born about 1875, Ireland, married about 1905 to Jane Selby Jones, born 1877, had a son name James Aloysius Gahan, born about 1905, Montreal Canada, died 1971, married 1935 to Margaret Alice Dean, born 1908, Canada, daughter of Fred Dean & Margaret Alice Leonard, both may have been born in England. James's siblings were Anthony, Maureen, Rita & Jimmy, who died 1970-1971. Margaret's siblings were Lillian, Arthur & Annie. James & Maureen had 3 daughters & 1 son named Richard born 1942 died 1969. At this time it is unknown if Richard Sr died in Ireland or did he immigrate to Canada. with his son. From the information already at hand, of the descendents, female is the pre-dominate gender in this lineage. It is unknown if either of the Richards had any siblings, or did Richard Jr marry in Ireland then immigrated to Canada soon after his wedding. It is unknown from which part of Ireland Gahans immigrated from, though it seems a great many Gahans may have immigrated from Wexford, Ireland. Did Richard Jr come from there? Any information would be greatly appreciated.
