Shea / O'Shea of Doon, Limerick
« on: Tuesday 09 January 07 00:15 GMT (UK) »
Hi all,

Trying to find info and anyone looking at the family of  a  John Shea and Mary Carroll, late 18th - early to mid 19th Century in Cappermore (I think) in the parish of Doon in Limerick.

As far as we know they had 4 children:
Patrick b c1808 Cappawhite (??), d 1883 Walloon, Ipswich, Queensland, Australia
John b. c 1815 Cappamore
Winifred b c1821 Cappamore, d. 1886 Ipswich, Queensland, Australia
James b. c 1826 Cappamore d. 1883 Ipswich, Queensland, Australia

All 3 children, Patrick, Winifred & James migrated to Queensland between 1840 and 1862. Patrick with his wife Mary Portley b c 1807 d. 1894 and 5 children.  Winifred with her son William Meehan in 1861, she was married to James Fitzgerald and finally James in 1859.  In 1873 they all changed their surname to O'Shea so I have people born Shea and married and died O'Shea.

If anyone could give me a hand with these I'd much appreciate it.

Cheers

Mick
