Good Morning all, I know this ancestor has been searched all over. I have searched and found that Mathew McElroy who married Sarah McGoveran in Sydney by Father Thierry, he is not Mary's real father but Michael Conroy is I have the baptism unfortunately he died in a Mental Home in Liverpool N.S.W. both of these convicts worked the Parramatta roads together, Mathew was in charge. Finding Mathew's and Sarah's burial dates has been a challenge, but I did find that they were in some Newspaper job printing about the Convicts.
I am still trying to find this records. Sarah McElroy was married to a Francis Mcgauran on the 13/9/1819 St. Johns Parramatta, he was hung around the same time as other convicts, they did have a daughter Mary, but she died. Sarah McElroy's maiden was Sandall her father Samuel and mother Sarah Whaley, also convicts.
