Johanna      1832   Kilbrittain

No 1st name    1835

James David  1837   (emigrated to Victoria, Australia in 1868 -  Unassisted Passenger) on "Southern Cross"

Hi Sue,

I've been asked by Jane Halloran Ryan to try to helkp you with your query but would like t clarify exactly what you are looking for as your query went on to show a considerable amount of information that you already have on your ancestors. Could you please let me know who in the family you are looking for. Is it hthe parents of David or Catherine for instance?

I have already had a prelimenary look at Catherine and have found the Baptism of a Catherine Mehigan in the Bandon area in 1809 which would make her 20 years at the time of marriage. I have not as yet found any info on David but have only begun to look.

Please let me have info as outlined above asap so that I can expand my search further or not.. You can answer me through this page or to me email address, frankfahy054@gmail.com

Stay safe & well

Hi Sue

 

Can i ask if you have more information on one of the children mentioned - Jeremiah Crowley. My ancestor was Jeremiah Crowley who married Ellen O'Brien in 1851. We know very little about our Jeremiah and i am wondering if we have this man in common?

Would love to hear more from you.

Regards

Geraldine
