Title: JOHN MADDEN
Post by: gumball on Sunday 10 November 13 23:52 GMT (UK)
Seeking Marriage of John Madden and Hannah Reynolds.  John born 1858 County Clare, Galway, and Hannah born 1861 Donegal.   We think they married about 1883;  as they left Ireland aboard the 'Cambodia'  in 1884 for Australia.  On the ships Manifest if stated that John's occupation was that of a Coachman and Hannah was a Cook.

Thanks for helping me, ???

Yes, thank you I have their arrival details and most of their history in Australia.  Just trying to find out their Marriage details.

He came from County Clare, Galway, in 1884,  there was another John Madden came from County Clare Galway in 1857 and settled in Hinton, Morpeth area.  John Madden(1884) first child was born in Hinton, Morpeth so I feel there is a relationship between these two John Madden's but have been unable to find anything so far.

Thanks for taking the time to post a reply. ???

Sorry I only have the information from the Ship's Manifest.  I haven't been able to find anything else at this stage.
