Mary and Denis Summers who immigrated to South Australia
« on: Sunday 08 April 18 08:39 BST (UK) »
hi i am wondering if anybody can help me locate a baptism/birth record of Mary Summers/Somers/Sommers and her brother Denis/Dennis Summers. 

It looks as tho Mary may have arrived in South Australia in 1855 on the John Banks and Denis in 1857on the Royal Albert. there is a note in a local paper placed by Mary looking for her brother 7 days after he arrived and it mentions that she is from Limerick.
on the passenger list it looks as tho Mary records her selected county as wales and she was 22, Denis was 25 and records his selected county as Limerick

According to their marriage records their father was Thomas Summers

thanks
Kate
