Searching for John Cooney, married to Bridget. Lived in Tipperary. Son also John born around 1820 and who came to Australia around 1840 ish. There is a family story that John jnr was a convict. We have the death certificate of John Jnr,he died 1875 and his father and mothers name is on that. John Snr is down as being a labourer and he is deceased. We also have wedding certificate of John jnr and harriet mary Herring/Hearne. We think John jnr left Ireland around 1840 to come to Australia. John snr could have been born around the late 1700’s
