Looking for information on CATHERINE CONWAY who was born in County Limerick c 1780. Catherine married John Kitts. However she was transported here to Australia on board the Convict Ship Minerva in 1800. . . as a Political Prisoner. Catherine already had 3 children in County Limerick. Many thanks. Trish

Dear Trish:
Thank you for your query to the Ireland Reaching Out message board.
You may already be aware of the Ireland Australia Transportation Database which is available online through the National Archives of Ireland.
http://findingaids.nationalarchives.ie/index.php
In addition, you might also consider consulting the Irish News Archives and/or the British Newspaper Archives websites which are subscription sites that offer a wide array of Irish and British newspapers. If you have a FindMyPast account, you can also access their Newspaper collection.
Finally, you might consider creating an Ancestor profile for Catherine under the XO Chronicles tab at the top of the page.
If you have any further questions, please let me know on this thread.
Kind regards,
Jane.
