Place of migration
Migrated to/Born in Australia

Michael Murray died in the Tulla Workhouse 25 Aug 1869. His son John Murray was also born in this workhouse on 11 Apr 1869. His wife was Johanna Heffernan. 

They had five children. Bridget, Michael, Mary Theresa, Margaret and John. I don't know his parents or his siblings. If anyone knows more about his family, I would be eternally grateful.  After Michael died, they all came out Australia in three separate batches. Bridget on her own in 1876, Mary and Michael in 1881, and finally the mother Johanna with Margaret and John in 1883.

    Irish press warns against Jamaican Indentured Servitude

    <p>The theme was always the same: the pestilential climate of the island, the reduction of poor emigrants to slaves, the severity and cruelty of the planters (and planter-dominated Assembly clinging to every vestige of oppression) and, of course, the absence of priests and chapels.</p>
