".....I have information that Jeremiah O'Leary born 1835 in Co.Cork Ireland to Patrick O'Leary and Ellen Kelly married Ellen Stack in Victoria Australia".
What is the source of your information about age, parents and birthplace of Jeremiah O'LEARY please?
BDM Victoria marriage
2788 / 1859 LEARY Jeremiah m. STACK Ellen
Do you have this marriage certificate?
".... They had one son in Australia..."
Can you name this child, and give birthplace and date please?
What certificates, Australia and NZ, do you have for BDM events in this family please?
Hi there.
The source of all my information is from the O'Leary family book that my Aunty let me borrow - I only photocopied relevant pages and returned it so I have no idea of publication date etc. It says that the person who provided the information had collected it from Family Records and Family Members. I don't have contact with anyone outside of my immediate family so thus far none of my records are confirmed in any way as of yet.
I believe the BDM Victoria Marriage record you provided is indeed the one I am looking for. I will apply for the certificate in the coming months.
I believe the child that was born in Australia was John James O'Leary born 24/9/1861 in Victoria Australia - I believe I may have also found this on the Vic BDM website - will also be applying for that certificate.
The book says that Jeremiah, Ellen and John James arrived "in Otago 1862; gold fields Gabriel's Gully"
Thanks
