Hi there, I'm looking to find any info on an Ancestor Robert Ward, B.1748 (approx)  and married to Mary Kelly B.1750.  They had a daughter Mary Ward B.1781 have attached record.  They may have had two sons namely Martin Ward B.1770 married to Joanne Nash...and Edward Ward B.1773 married to Anastasia Molloy/Mulloy.  I have attached record for Mary Ward's Birth 1781 and mother Mary Kelly's Birth in 1750. It appears they were living in Ferns Diocese in Wexford, Ireland. Any help is appreciated.  Cheers Robyn

Hi there,
My great-great grandmother is Mary Ann Nowlan,  B.1816 in Wicklow, Ireland and Baptised 11 Aug 1816. She married John Mannox/Monnox in Goulbourn, NSW in 1839
 ** Her birth record states parents as James Nowlan and Mary Nowlan. Possibly married in 1808 in Wicklow, Ireland
Am trying to find Mary's maiden name. I had Crawford but don't think that's correct
Mary Ann Nowlan aged 13yrs and her mother 42yrs came to Australia as Convicts. On the documents I read mother was "W" widow???
Mary Nowlan also had two sons who came out as Convicts also same time 1829. The four Nowlans are mentioned in Peter Mayberrys website.
The two sons are James Nowlan B.1809 and John Nowlan B. 1811.
They all arrived around 1829-1830 in Australia.

I cannot find what happened to Husband James Nowlan. Other researchers have him D. 1840 in Canada
I have a James Nolan/Nowlan B.1786 as a Convict in 1819 coming to Australia. (Peter Mayberry List)
Mary Nowlan (Snr) remarried in 1832 soon after as she arrived in Australia
to John English. Hoping this is same Mary Nowlan/Nolan.
Any help would be appreciated.

Hello, am trying to find records for my G.G.G.grandfather Richard Fitzgerald B. abt 1799 who married Catherine Hayes B. abt 1800 in Ireland/England. Catherine's parents were Michael Hayes and Catherine Walsh, as per Death Records in Australia. I cannot find any Birth or Marriages for these families. Think these people were born in Ireland and moved to Middlesex, England, then migrated to Australia around 1850's. Richard and Catherine Fitzgerald had a son Richard Fitzgerald B. abt 1830. I have Richard and Catherine's Death dates in Australia.
Any help would be appreciated. Cheers Robyn

Hi there, My great-grandfather Condran, came to Australia as a Convict. His name was Michael Conran, on his Convict papers.  His father was Patrick Conran. So I'm not sure of their original surname. Would it be Condran or Conran?
