MULLAN or MULLANE/DUVAL
« on: Wednesday 18 January 12 08:29 GMT (UK) »
Hoping someone can help me with these pair.
Margaret Mullan/Mullane arrived in Australia as an assisted immigrant on the Lady Kenneway on 13th Sept 1841,she was born abt 1822-24 County Cork Ireland.She married James Duval b.1812 Brest/ France  in St Mary's church Sydney on 11th July 1841.She had three children I know of
James Duval b.1843 d.1886
John  Duval  b. 1845 d.1917
Jane  Duval  b.  1846 d.1852

She was admitted to Darlinghurst Jail in 1851
She died of Dysentry in Sydney Benevolent Asylum 0n 30th Oct 1858
She was buried in RC Cemetry Sydney 2nd Nov 1858.
Is there anyway of finding out about her conviction?
Also is there away of researching James Duval who came from France,I cannot find him on any passenger list here,I have been to a few french sites but can't read French.
Any help would be much appreciated.
Cheers
Judy
