Looking for Michael Healy

KerryBallymacelligott (Kerry)

Hi,

My Great Grandfather was Michael Healy born circa 1832 in Mill, Annuscaul County Kerry.

His parents were Patrick and Mary (Brien, O'Brienne,O'Brien,Bryan). Patrick was a farm worker and moved around the area with lings to Springmont, Gortatlea, Ash Hill, Ballymacelligott.

Michael came to New Zealand in 1856 abourd the ship John Masterman which sailed from Gravesend to Nelson, New Zealand. Michael's brother John had already come out in 1855 and settled in the Nelson area.

Michael married Grace ellen Doherty from Moville/Londonderry, Noth Donegal. They married in Christchurch, New Zealand in 1858 and had approximately 18 children. My grandfather was the youngest.

Any information on Michael's family would be greatly appreciated in helping compile our family tree.

Kind Regards

Murray Healey

Hi Murray ... you might be interested in my post regarding the Healys and the Brosnahans. I am trying to find the link between Deborah Healy and Johanna Fitzgerald who were both Brosnahans. Your Patrick was Deborah's son. Leonie
