Hi Jane,
I can't tell you much about NIXONs in Westmeath at that time - and the names Robert and George don't ring any bells - ours were all Henry/James/John?Francis.It's looking as though our NIXON line may have originated from Castletown Delvin in Co Westmeath, but the info I have for this is in the early 1800s and I haven't yet been able to trace it forwards, other than my own direct ancestors' bit which doesn't sound as though it fits in with your information.I will try and post more when I have time to assimilate all my notes on this bit of the family, but that won't be for a while yet.
Regards and good luck searching,
Fiona
