Thankyou  for your reply, I have no proof of anything, a older family member suggested they may have come out via USA?  I need to try and find shipping records or something. All i have is them in Adelaide SA, in 1850s when the eldest daughter married  my relative. No cert i have purchased give any parents names?

Hi Shane, I Looked through the Griffths Valuation, if i only knew an address would have been good. I have been told to search shipping in particular IRELAnd to AMERICA or AMERICA to AUSTRALIA  FOR EGANS sounds like hard work for this, I never gave it a thought  that they may have immigrated to USA first, then to AUSTRALIA. Was that common  in IRELAND ?  Shane just found out  from wedding cert spelt their names EAGAN????

Hi Shane, the thing is I do not know of their trades, hard enough trying to find how they got to Australia , and reason why they went to the dead of the outback to make a life.  Only first settlers discovering the areas in that part of the country around 1840s/50s. Actually squatters on the land,  sheep and cattle. They needed medals just to do that, and to drag the wifes and children along too . BEATS  ME......SANDRA
