There are trees on ancestry In Australia. Also a line that went to New York starting with William b about 1875. There is data on him and children etc on family search web site. His son married a Goonan which is the name I linked into, although I am unsure of any relationship at this stage to my own Goonan tree of that area. Good luck.
My wife's family descend from a Kildea from Galway and DNA results match with two other families from the Woodford area who have Kildeas and Gildeas:

James & Margaret Kildea are my 2nd Great Grandparents that came to Australia & settled in Kapunda in South Australia.. Brian is my Great Grandfather. They had a small farm just out of Kapunda. I have a public profile on Ancestry.com if you want to have a look. Aspro Jnr. Angela Kildea
