Irish Born- Mary,Margaret,Ellen & Annie CAHALANE

[Cath19]

Hi. I'm looking for help please as I'm at a loss as to how to research my great grand aunts who emigrated to Australia from Skibbereen, Co.Cork Ireland. There were 4 sisters but I'm not sure where they went so my information is very very vague.
Mary was born 30 March 1859.
Ellen was born 4 October 1863
Margaret was born 4 April 1868
Annie was born 10 Feb 1870.

I dont know any married names, although one may have married a doctor, named McCarthy, but thats not certain.

I have a picture of whom I believe may be Mary, with her children Maggie, Agnes and Mick. This was taken in Webb & Webb, 374 Hay Street, Perth.
I also have a wedding picture of Chris & Del, one who must be a niece or nephew, taken in the 1920's.
I am attaching both photos in the hope it rings a bell with someone!

If anyone could give me any guidelines as to where I should be searching, I would really appreciate it.


Thank you for taking the time to read this.
Cath

Hullo Cath, Welcome to Rootschat.

Do you know when (what Year) they emmigrated to Australia and the parents names? Sometimes children are not listed only as family so the parents names are important.

My name is Anne Cahalane.  I am in the United States.  I think some how we must be related.  Cahalane is a very rare name here.
