Looking for Limerick birthplace of Patrick Slattery because visiting Ireland in March 2025.
Patrick was born around 1810 and was a blacksmith.
He was tried on 12 July, 1831 in Limerick City aged 21 for assault. He was sentenced to 7 years in NSW.
He married Mary Ann Parker (who came to NSW as a free settler with her parents) in 1838. Mary Ann was from either Limerick or Tipperary?
