Hi Baldbill.   We must be related!   I am always researching my family.   I don't think he changed his name to Phillips.   Mary Ann Hayden married twice.  Are u in Australia?

Hello Ken. Thank you for helping me.  Where can I find the information you have?  The years you gave for Mauritian involvement  are spot on for my man.   You said I could go to my local office for further info?? Which local office do you mean?   Is there a site I could search for Michael Dooley's Army file?

Armed Forces / Irish 5th Fusiliers - circa 1846 - files
« on: Sunday 24 November 13 23:06 GMT (UK)  »
Please forgive my ignorance - I just don't know where to look or how to start searching English/Irish documents from Australia  :)

I have been tracing my 5 x Grandfather Michael Dooley and historical paperwork from the Police Musuem in Victoria Australia has his application papers recording he served in the 5th Fusiliers Army for 7years.  Working backwards from the papers work he would have been in the Army circa 1846.

the paperwork also says he was in Mauritius prior to coming to Hobart Town Australia around 1853.  Did the Fusiliers go to Mauritius??

Michael Dooley was born 1824 in Galway ( I know this from his death certificate ). 

I would be grateful for any help on how to proceed from here .    8)

Monaghan / Newbliss Kilbevan - Samuel Tibby
« on: Saturday 06 April 13 03:38 BST (UK)  »
Hello from Australia!  I am hoping that someone who is familiar with Monaghan records can point me in the right direction.

I found the birth town & parish ( 1817 ) that my family member came from - It was recorded in his Army record.

Can anyone advise me what resources are available when I can't find the family in the British census records ( he was sent to Sth Africa with the British Army in the 1850's).

Would there be parish records held anywhere without me having to fly around the world? :D

I think Samuel's wife was named Margaret  :)  Samuel's daughter was Elizabeth and her death certficate in Australaia says she was born in Limmerick in 1841.

Hello Dawn  :)   I didn't understand that England had 2 systems for ordering Birth Certificates if 1 was for a Regimental Birth.  I had a little light bulb moment  ;D  I keep thinking Australian System where ALL births come from the same Government Department.  Thank you so much for helping me
