I am a descendant of James Beilby b.1830, Yorkshire.  He married Elizabeth Baker 1827. James and Elizabeth sailed to Australia on the Caroline Agnes 1849.  I am interested in finding information on the ancestors of James and Elizabeth.

So is the above correct as James BEILBY and Elizabeth BAKER are the parents of George Cornelius who was born 1858 and married Mary FAHEY dau of John FAHEY and Margaret C*?

I am confused  now ;D

Info about your great grandmother Mary would help us ;D  Marriage, death.....

The marriage certificate for Mary Fahey and George Cornelius Beilby states Mary's parents as being JOHN FAHEY and MARGARET COMRAY (could be Comroy, Camray, it's difficult to read).  It confirms that Mary was born in Lancashire England and that James Fahey and Elizabeth Graham were NOT HER PARENTS.[/color]

We are looking for Mary Fahey, parents John and Margaret, born Lancashire, England. does the marriage certificate give her age, and her fathers occupation. We may be able to find them on the English census.

I am looking for the family history of this family.  Their daughter Mary Fahey was my great grandmother.

Mary Fahey was born in 1858 (possibly Australia) and married George Cornelius Beilby in 1881 in Australia.  I have no information on Mary's her parents other than their names.

Where did you initially find the parents of Mary as James FAHEY and Elizabeth GRAHAM?  

I can't see a birth of a daughter to George Cornelius BEILBY and Mary FAHEY.

Well if it is now John FAHEY we are searching

Perhaps her father or a relative..

FAHEY Jno
Father Fahey Jno  Mother Bridget HOGAN
At Sheep Hills 85 years  1906  Reg#7078

FAHEY John  Born Ireland  74 years Status Married
Hospital record  12 Jul 1897
Place - Elaine
Occupation Labourer    In Colony 32 years  Religion Roman Catholic

If the above info is accurate this could be the family's arrival but mother is Mary.

http://prov.vic.gov.au/index_search?searchid=23

Arrived on the NAPIER May 1865 Port B Fiche 246 Page 003

FAHEY John 32 years
FAHEY Mary 31 years
FAHEY Michael 11 years   
FAHEY John 9 years
FAHEY Mary 3 years   

Another resource states this family are English.

Births Sep 1862  
FAHEY Mary Liverpool    8b/7

John Fahy    30
Margaret Fahy    30
Michael Fahy    8
John Fahy    6
Edmond Fahy    25
Roger Franese    25
Catherine Corcoran    20
   
1861 Census  RG9/3062/63/31
Living at Lowerfol, Old Accrington, Lancs
FAHY John  Head Married  30 years  Labourer  Born Ireland
FAHY Margaret Wife  30 years  Cotton weaver  Born Ireland
FAHY Michael  Son 8 years  Born Lancs Accrington
FAHY John Son 6 years  Born Lancs Accrington
FAHY Edward  Relative  25 years Unmarried  Cotton Weaver  Born Ireland

What is Mary's age on the marriage cert?  If this is the correct family Mary was possibly born c1862 and would have needed parental consent to marry in 1881.

Did Mary's father or legal guardian, give consent for her marriage to George?

Death
FAHEY Margaret
Father Conroy Denis  Mother Margaret McLAUGHLIN
At Elaine  83 years  1899  Reg#13553

Frustrating when ALL the information on certs is not posted.

Perhaps I have the wrong family on the census if they only married in 1861.

Hi

I thought that was their arrival on the Napier too Cando, I wonder if Margaret was his second marriage, the older children may have been his first wife. Anything is possible.

Make sure you have a look at this link because it mentions that his daughter is a Mrs D Jenkins, yes the D is wrong but so are a lot of other things. If she remarried or partnered a Jenkins this most likely is Mary's father.
