Juliana Shea, Tralee
Hello. My great, great grandmother was Juliana Shea or O’Shea. She was born around 1834 in Tralee. Juliana (Julia, Julie) married Michael Quinlan in April 1855 in Molahiff (Castleisland). She had at least seven children, including my great grandfather Eugene Joseph Quinlan. The children were born around Knockrour, Cork. Juliana’s husband is listed as farmer, however I have not been able to find any records for him.
Juliana migrated to Queensland, Australia in 1890 with two of her children (Johanna and Eugene). Sadly, she died in February 1891 in Warwick, Queensland, Australia. One of her other sons, Patrick, notified authorities of her death just 10 months after migrating.
i am visiting Ireland in June 2026 and am hoping to find information about Michael Quinlan, Juliana’s husband and my great, great grandfather. I have joined Ancestry.com however have had no luck re Michael. There is no record that he left Ireland.
Would there be any records that might point me towards his fate?
Any and all advice much appreciated!!!
