Looking for family of John HALLIGAN
My great Great Grandfather - John HALLIGAN left Ireland and went to Western Australia in the 1800's. He settled in a place called New Norcia.

Hi mate
im also a direct descendant on john halligan. His farm, summerhill, still stands and the house and buildings are a heritage listed site in new norcia (or the glentrommie area to be precise). I imagine summerhill was named after the town in Meath.
If you decided to come to Australia, new norcia is a stunning town built by the Spanish Benedictine monks and you can see John Halligan's portrait in the museum.

Hi,
I am also a relative! I’m in Perth, Western Australia. I have a lot of old Halligan photos which I have no idea who the people are!
