Seeking information regarding John M'Auliffe, transported to NSW per 'Ann & Amelia', from Limerick, possibly Rathkeale, 1825 for rebellion.
Seeking information regarding Eliza Higgins, age 21, alias Cosgrove, sister or sister in law to John M'Auliffe (records unclear), tried Limerick Aug 1829 for stealing clothes, transported NSW 1830 per 'Forth', arrived Port Jackson NSW 12.10.1830. Trade on arrival Confectioner / All work. Eliza married my ggg grandfather at Bathurst NSW, 1843 but sadly died 1848.
Any leads or links gratefully received.
Thank you,
