My ancestors were Quakers from Mountmellick. After Richard's death, Eliza came to Australia with two of her children. Her younger daughter, Anna Sophia, my GG grandmother came later. I would be interested in any information on them and their ancestors.

Thank you,
Elizabeth Schwenke.

  • Dear Ballypierce,

    Richard Shannon (1785 - 1851) was the son of William Shannon and Jane Pim. He married Elizabeth Wilson (1809 - 1887) in1830. She was the daughter of Isaac Wilson and Mary Shannon. 

    We are currently working on this tree and have traced descendants to Canada, USA and Australia.

    Elizabeth.
