All l know about my 2nd great grandparents is that they arrived in Australia on the ship New Zealander via the HIES in 1853. According to the record from the passenger lists they were both born (and l assume) married in Limerick. From their ages on arrival l believe the year of birth would have been 1829 for her and 1823 for him.

The only other thing l know is that Charlottes fathers name was Patrick and he was a jeweller. Daniels fathers name was Daniel. Any information or areas to search would be very gratefully received. I am on ancestry.com but can find nothing. Thanks, Deb

    Welcome to Ireland Reaching Out!

    The marriage occurred before civil registration in 1864 so church records would be your only source. I did search Roots Ireland for a 20 year period but could not locate the marriage record. Since you posted in the Abington parish page, I assume they were from that area. Here is the link to the Abington parish register. Records start around 1814.

    I will also alert our parish liaison for Abington that you have posted a message.
