Lee Family of Co Wicklow??

I have a brick wall!! I have been looking for Bridget Lee's Family for some time. Her death Cert didn't have much info at all just basics. Some history: Bridget b.1824 married Donald McLaren b. 1806 Perthshire, Scotland, had seven children before imigrating to Wellington, NZ on the Indian Queen in 1856. The childrens death certs all say being born in Wicklow.

The children: Robert b.1842, John b. 1846, Neil abt. 1847, Maryann b, 1849 Cunday, William Frederick b.1851, Donald b. 1853, Margaret b. 1854. Finding Bridgets Parents and siblings would be on the way to completing our Tree. I would be very grateful. Thanking you, Judy D

Hello Judy.

I am also looking for birth/baptism details for a Lee of Wicklow. His name is James Lee, my great grandfather. He was married in County Louth and gave his profession as Police Constable. His police records show his native County as Wicklow. James and his wife Elizabeth (nee McEvoy) migrated to Australia in 1854 but then went on to NZ in early 1855. They lived in Auckland. His death certificate in 1880 showed his father as Thomas Lee.

Maybe there is a connection; maybe not. I live in Melbourne and if you would like to discuss some more my email is graemejlee@bigpond.com

Hi Judy 

I am also searching for Bridget Lee's family. She was my great great grandmother. Bridget and Donald's daughter Mary Ann was my great grandmother, and her daughter Beatrice was my grandmother (my dads mother). Have you managed to find any info yet? Not sure if I have anything to add, just some interesting bits off paperspast. If you would like to contact me, my email is angelitenz@hotmail.com. I live i Auckland NZ

Best regards
