Family History Beginners Board / Irish ancestors Ward and Ryan
« on: Monday 08 August 22 22:16 BST (UK) »
My Irish ancestors immigrated to Australia. I have the following details (which may be slightly incorrect).
Michael Ward. Born Ballinasloe, Roscommon about 1857. Parents Michael Ward and Bridget Doolan (or Dolan). He went to Australia before 1882, as this was the date of his marriage in Melbourne.
Anne Ryan. Born Athlone, Roscommon about 1857. Parents John Ryan and Ellen Connor (or Connelly).
I have a copy of what seems to be the immigration details for Annie 20, with John 26, Katherine 23 and Pat 18 on the Northumberland in May 1878. However I cannot find confirmation of these details when searching the ship's records.
Perhaps there are some family members who have the correct details for Michael and Anne and their parents. From a letter written to my mother from her cousin, there was a relative of Anne's living in Moore, Roscommon.
