Tipperary / Re: Johanna Ryan
« on: Tuesday 29 March 11 23:40 BST (UK) »
Thanks Shane. Yes, Ryans in Co Tipperary certainly do pose some problems. I am trying to ascertain if this Johanna Ryan could be the daughter of Patrick Ryan and Johanna Leonard who were married in Kilcommon parish, archdiocese of Cashel and Emly, on 14 Jan 1864. Patrick's home at the time is listed as Blackstairs, Tipperary, and Johanna's as Clonmurragha. They had 11 children with their 7th child being Johanna, christened in Kilcommon on 22 Oct 1876. I know that Johanna,senior, and 4 of her children migrated to Australia and have recently found evidence of a Johanna Ryan, b1876, who also sailed to Australia in 1900. Unfortunately I have not been able to track any of her movements since she arrived in Rockhampton. Any help would be most appreciated.
