Malone from Dublin City

Dublin

Hi,

My GGG Grand Bridget Malone born about 1810 Dublin City, Parents John and Kate transported to Australia as a convict.

Bridget was convicted of House Robbery at Dublin on 22 July 1836

She was sentenced to 7 years and transported to Australia

Arriving per Margaret 30 May 1837

Bridget was a housemaid, could read, single and a Catholic.

I have no other information for Bridget and her family in Ireland, I have been able to complete her Australian research.

Looking for help with the Irish side of things

Margaret

Church of Ireland parish registers for the period up to 1870-are public records. Registers are available for about one third of the parishes, however many were destroyed in the Public Records Office in Dublin in 1922. Most are still held by the local clergy, although some are in the National Archives of Ireland and others are in the Representative Church Body Library in Dublin. A list of all surviving registers is available in the National Archives. http://ireland.anglican.org/about/42 and http://www.nationalarchives.ie/.  The Anglican Record Project is has created an index to their records: http://ireland.anglican.org/cmsfiles/pdf/AboutUs/library/AngRecord/bunclodyunionindex.pdf
