Mullins Family around 1800 to 1860

Limerick

Hi There,

I am researching my paternal great grandmother's family. Her name was Catherine Mullins. She was born in 1844 in the parish of Croagh. Catherine had a brother named John worn around 1841 and another older brother Thomas.Thomas had migrated to Port Elizabeth, South Africa in 1858. Catherine and John joined him in Port Elizabeth in 1861.

That's all I know about Catherine and her family. I would love to know who her parents were and possibly what their story may have been in the records of Croagh.

The jpg attached is from a book byEsm Bull, Aided Immigration from Britain to South Africa, 1857-1867, Human Sciences Research Council, 1991, pgs 438-439

Thank You,

Tony
