still Searching for origins of MCNALLY, Catharine Christiana

[Wiggy]

Now you remind me, I have seen those lists before  - it is the Marines and crews I'd like to find.

If they had children on board, would they have been registered when they arrived in Port Jackson - do you know??   Or would they have been registered back in UK -??   Or would they have been registered at all I wonder?

Seems we are back to the old merry-go-round! 

Need to get off and think straight again!!

Sorry to resurrect such and old topic but I've read all three parts of this search and it fascinated me. I'm no relation but found it by chance on another search on here.

Was there ever any outcome of who Catharine McNally really was?

[Wiggy]

No there never was - 

Glad you found our meanderings interesting.    We went up and down many rabbit holes didn't we!!

I still keep looking from time to time as new records become available, but she is the most talented woman I know as far as NEVER being around to be recorded.

Hi (principally) to Wiggy

I also am very interested in Catherine McNally.

I have what could be new information.

I understand this thread (and its predecessors) spread over many pages.

Are there other related threads I should be aware of?

To save me getting on top of previous posts now, am I right that Wiggy is a linear descendant of Catherine through her son Thomas?

I would like to PM Wiggy, but am a new member and understand I must make three public posts first.

Regards

Just to add further to the above, I believe Catherine may have:

-    been born in or near Mullingar, Westmeath, Ireland,

-    arrived in VDL (or, less likely, NSW) as a convict, and

-    possibly been younger than the record of her death suggests.

Hi Harvey,

Yes I am a direct descendant of Catherine McNally.   

You have whetted my interest.  I would be happy to hear your thoughts and suggestions.

I have looked many times in UK, Ireland, the West Indies, and even Australia for a likely birth.
 So far, no luck, so I would love to see your proposed birth date, parents and convictions. 

 We also searched all convicts with name of Catherine /Catharine arriving in Australia., but were able to account for them all.

Looking forward to hearing from you.   Hope you have some new info.   

Wiggy

Edit to add  -   

  There are other threads  -  - - to do with Thomas Ransom, both senior and junior.
