Catherine Tully Galway
« on: Sunday 13 May 12 14:21 BST (UK) »
Just a wild hope that somebody may be researching Catherine Tully:

Born 1829 Castleblakeney, Galway
In Mount Bellow workhouse 1853 -this is documented
Shipped to Australia in the ship "Palestine" 1853 -this is documented
Set up home with Joseph Watkins in York Western Australia-proven
Died 1901

We have some info but would like to find her family who may have come to UK.

Thank you

Hi Mike
I know this is a long way on from May 2012, but Catherine Tully came up in my Father-in-Law's family tree on his mother's side.

I don't know if you have this info already,. but here goes.

I have no firm info of a marriage, but it seems that Catherine Tully married Joseph Watkins in 1854.
They had a daughter, Mary Ann Watkins 30 Nov 1854 in York. She died 09 Jul 1919 in Fremantle.
Mary Ann married George Willey born 20 Aug 1849 and died 27 April 1906.
They married in 1871 in Beverley, she was 17.

Mary Ann and Joseph had a son William Henry (Harry) Willey abt. 1875 - 02 Dec 1955.
Not sure about other children.

William Henry married Edith Grover born 15 Feb 1877, died 03 Jan 1941.
They had a daughter, again not sure about other children, Elsie Louisa Doreen Willey.

Elsie is my father in law's mother.

I hope that this helps out your research.
Regards
Claude

Hi,
I was reading your messages.
On the marriage of Catherine Tully did it give her fathers name?
There are 5 Catherine Tully born + or - 5 years, from the year you say.... 1829.
There is 1 near to Castleblakeney, but I would need the fathers name, please.
