THOS ANDREW MATHEWS LOUTH IRE/AUST
« on: Saturday 11 July 09 06:19 UTC (UK) »
Would like to discover exactly where in County Louth, Thomas Andrew Mathews was born on the 12 May 1825, Maybe Louth, Co Louth. Also more about his parents and other siblings.
Thomas`s father was also Thomas and is said to have lived to the ripe old age of 103, could have died in Ireland or England?
Thomas MATHEWS ( born 1825) married 24 Nov 1850 at St CUTHBERT`S  RC Church, Bedford Rd, North Sheilds in the Diocese of Hexham and Newcastle, Eng. The marriage cert shows Thomas`s parents as Thomas and Margaret MATHEWS, Thomas and a ANN MATHEWS were  witnesses at wedding. The bride was MARY DEVINE born 1831? Whitehaven, Eng. Mary`s parents were residence of South Sheilds, her father PATRICK DEVINE (Potter/ Sea Captain by trade), mother MARGARET FEGAN/FELAN?
Thomas Mathews crossed to Eng 1839, learning trade as shipwright, spenting 17 years in Eng before travelling to Australia in 1857, where his property Louth, became the town of Louth, NSW. Leaving his father, wife and children in England, selling up their properties in Ireland. Mary( age 33)  and children arrived in Aust in 1862.
Sorry! Mathews is such a common name. Mathews with one T.
Thank you for taking the time to read this.
