Laois (Queens) / Maryborough Queen's County Workhouse/Prison?
« on: Wednesday 22 June 16 06:09 BST (UK) »
Recently had a death transcription done for my grandfather, James Walsh, hoping to get some more information. It showed he was born in Queens County, Ireland around 1842 and came to Victoria Australia around 1865. Don't know if he was an assisted passenger or not. However the transcription also showed his father was James Walsh shown as Governor of Maryborough Workhouse. His mother was Bridget Connolly. I can only find Maryborough Prison and don't know where I might find registers of staff to find any record of my great great grandfather. I would also like to find on what ship my great grandfather came to Australia.
Thanks for any help you may be able to give.
