Trying to find information on parents of Maria Trand. According to her marriage and death certificates she was born around 1835 in Kilrush. Her parents were John D Trand (possibly de Trand) and Hannah Kennedy. She appears to have come to Australia in 1853/4. She married Thomas Gill in 1854 in Ballarat and they had 14 children.

Drop me a message with your email and we can exchange share some family research.
