Michael McNamara from Kilfenora co Clare Ireland gone to Australia
« on: Friday 05 February 16 02:25 GMT (UK) »
Hi,
This is my first post here.
I have been researching my family tree in Australia and established the following relates to my family who lived in Ireland and came out to Australia:

My third great-grandfather was James McNamara, DOB 1814 and DOD 07/06/1872 both in Fanta Glebe, Kilfenora, County Clare.
My second great-grandfather was Michael McNamara, DPOB 1834 Fanta Glebe, Kilfenora, County Clare and DPOD 22/12/1922 Dengarsleigh, New South Wales, Australia.

My third great-grandmother was Margaret Kilderry, DPOB about 1810 and DPOD 27/11/1870 both in Fanta Glebe, Kilfenora, County Clare .
My second great-grandmother was Mary (Kearns) Kerin, DPOB about 1834 Fanta Glebe, Kilfenora, County Clare and DPOD 06/02/1869 Tiara, New South Wales, Australia.

Any suggestions on how I should continue tracing my family tree in Ireland?

Many thanks,

Peter
