Greetings from the South Pacific
I am seeking Ireland-Queensland Australia immigration records for children of Bernard McGrath B about 1803 D 11 Sept 1875 Newmarket Fergus Clare and Mother Margaret Keogh B 18 Nov 1836 and D 1875. Married 29 Nov 1851 Silvermines Tipperary. They were living for a long time at Newmarket Fergus Clare. Parish. I think Bernard was the principal teacher at the Newmarket Boys School from 1843-1851.
It is thought that two children were sponsored to Queensland Australia. ie
Bernard McGrath B 29 September 1863
Margaret McGrath B 6 January 1870
They are thoght to have arrived in Queensland in 1886. Despite every effort no immigration records have been found here,
Would any immigration info about them be available in Ireland.
Thank you.
