Phair family of Ballintober/Castlerea/Ballymoe

Phair family of Ballintober/Castlerea/Ballymoe

Hello. I'm looking to further my knowledge of my Phair family origins. My branch of the Phair family emigrated to Aus between 1852 and about 1860. They were Thomas, John, William, George and Margaret, all the children of Thomas Phair and Margaret Higgins. They were born in Ballintober from 1820 ish through to the 1830s and I have researched their lives in Australia, but am missing some pieces from back in Ireland. Ellen Phair remained in Ireland and married Michael Cook in 1845. She had children but I don't know anymore about her. She had a sister Bridget Phair, but I know nothing further about her.

Then there are the family branches from Castlerea, which I have researched reasonably well, but the Ballymoe (Galway) branch alludes me.

Can anyone assist me in regards these family members?

Thank you. Wayne Phair. Melbourne.
