Honora LEAHY born about 1822
« on: Monday 19 November 18 04:28 GMT (UK) »
Looking for the maiden surname, parents of Honora LEAHY tried at Cork, Ireland transported to Tasmania, Australia arriving February 1853.  Her Convict Records (Tasmania) show she was married to a Dennis LEAHY, at time of trial.  She or her Husband imprisoned on Spike Island, Cork.  They may have married about 1848. Per  Tasmanian Prison Record.

 Possible she was Honora DENEHEY born 1822 Catsletownroche, County Cork before first marriage, not certain.
Honora re-married in Tasmania 1854 but first had to satisfy the Priest her first husband had died before he would officiate.
Kind regards

Hullo majm,
Thanks for this information.   I live in Tasmania and regularly visit our Archives and had these records - hence the reference to Spike Island.  I do appreciate your interest.
If you want assistance at this end please contact me.  Invitation extends to other Cork rootschat members.

Hullo rathmore
Many thanks for your assistance.
These Irish sites are quite useful, although one site would not let me search from faraway Tasmania.
One site did give me the witness names to the 1845 marriage -- a Daniel DENAHY -- will search further for her birth as Daniel DENAHY may have been Honora's Father.
IF you need assistance from Tasmania please let me know.
Regards
clancam37.
