Laois (Queens) / Seeking information on Mary Fenelly
« on: Friday 19 January 18 04:30 GMT (UK) »
Seeking any details on Mary FENELLY (also FINLAY, FENNELLY or FANNALLY).
She was born in County Laois and migrated to the New South Wales colony in 1849 as part of the Earl Grey Scheme. I have some details from her arrival records in Sydney, and gathered a fair bit about her in Australia, but have not managed to find much more detail in Ireland.
Born: around 1833 to 1835 in Abbeylaix
Father: Fenton Fenelly
Mother: "Peggy", likely Margaret Doyle.
I believe I have a marriage record for Fenton Fenelly to Margaret Doyle in Raheen Parish, October 1829. I have no information about Fenton or Peggy and any assistance in locating information on Mary, Fenton or Peggy would be greatly appreciated.
