She was the eldest of 9 children, all born in the same place.

She left for Australia in 1900,with her Brother: PATRICK,  arriving in Townsville in Aug 1900.  She married Alfred Bryant in Townsville, North Queensland, Australia.

Patick went on to Rockhampton, Nth Queensland and was not heard from again.

I would love to be able to connect with any family members, who may still be living in Ireland or who went to USA.

  • Hi,  I am a decendent of Timothy Clifford whos parents were John Clifford and Mary Connor.  Through a DNA match I have found a cousin who was decended from Michael Clifford also John and Mary's son.  I found a marriage record for John and Mary for 1874.  The earliest record I can find for this couple was the 1901 census which lists five children, Ellen (1882), Michael (1883), Margaret (1886), John (1889), and my grandfather Timothy (1891).  There must have been older children between 1874 and 1882, so am wondering if your Julia maybe from this family.  I would really like to know if they are related and who the other three children would be.  

    I know this message has been here for a long time, but my grandfather listed Killorglin as where he came from so I have been looking in the wrong place.  My DNA match had a birth record for Michael from Keass which has been my searching place for the last couple of months.

    Mary
