New Zealand Completed Requests / Re: QUINNs in WAIMATE.
« on: Sunday 24 June 07 01:48 BST (UK)  »
I am also beginning to think that they may have had an uncle Henry Quinn with them.  So all the Quinns and all the dates are worth looking at.  Nicholas wasn't too common a name (compared with William) so there may be a link to the older Nicholas as well.  Here's hoping......

 Looking for any information or any advice on tracking down:

Nicholas QUINN. Co Down single; a labourer aged 21 and his brothe William QUINN aged 18, arrived in Dunedin , New Zealand on board 'S.S.Arawa ' on 24 Dec 1884; left Plymouth 8 Nov 1884 PL/DP
==================
Nicholas & William were originally from Kilkeel, Co. Down.
======
They  first went to Australia to a place called Bendigo,  made some money and then moved on to New Zealand where they bought 5000 acres on the South Canterbury Plains at a place called WAIMATE.

Any help greatfully appreciated,

Fiona,
IGP County Down Coordinator

Free Photo Restoration & Date Old Photographs / Re: Family in need of some TLC
« on: Friday 16 March 07 12:46 GMT (UK)  »
Everyone has done a great job restoring this photograph - each version highlights something different and wondeful in the photograph.  In each - a beautiful, happy, loving family shines through.  I can see why your Mum would keep it in her handbag close at hand.  If you printed this out and put it in a frame it would make a beautiful Mother's Day gift.

Would love to more about your Rooneys - DOBs etc. so that I can work out where they fit in.
