Cork / Re: Condon of Mitchelstown

Update about out Redmond Condon.
This name is definitely recurring in my family tree, however I checked my Australian records and my grandfather's grandfather was James, not Redmond.
He did have a son and grandson called Redmond.
To find out how my John Condon, son of James and Elizabeth (Kelly), ended up in Victoria Australia,  I need to find James  and Elizabeth Kelly. I don't know if they remained in Ireland or migrated to Australia.
There is a good chance they were dairy farmers because John  Condon ran his own dairy farm in Carlton Victoria, Australia. I'm sure this was from around Mitchelstown.
John met and married his wife in Australia. Bridget McMahon.

Wow, that was quick.
Instant response.  Amazing.
And yes outs probably them.
Thank you so very much.
How do I go about getting a copy of the actual census record? Do you know?

Cork / Condon of Mitchelstown

Redmond Condon is a common name from Mitchelstown.
My ancestor was one of them, and there was another who migrated to NZ around the same era. Perhaps cousins.
My Redmond married Elizabeth Anne Kelly but I don't know if they migrated to Australia, or if their son John came without them. 
John was born in Mitchelstown in 1861.  He died in Victoria Australia, 1938. He was a dairyman.
I'd love to find out more about his Irish family, and hope one day to come and meet some relatives in Ireland.

Ha ha...yes Keith
Distant cousins by marriage.
However I get confused with all the Johns,  Matthews and Walters across the generations.
It would  be good to see it on a tree.  Can I buy one from you?
Also I met some of Walter Raymond's siblings on various trips  to NZ over the years. Including Winnie Torr; mentioned by Minniehaha

Yes thanks Fran.
The information on family tree tallies.
We have Walter Russell's certificate of when he left the army.
I confused his name before.
His certificate names him Walter Russell without the surnane Chatterton  attached - which had something to do with the disagreement. My husband Brian is his grandson.
But the information about how and why Walter senior went to NZ is amazing and greatly appreciated.
We didn't know that Walter Russell was orphaned.
His son Walter Raymond  also lost his mother Violet Fawson at a young age and lived with Nana Anderton.I don't know if there was a family relationship or if she was his carer? ?,
My husband, Brian Russel (one "L") Chatterton met her in a nursing home in Dannevirk when he was little.
It is great to get confirmation as to which Chattertons Walter Russell is connected with.
Thanks so much

Thanks Keith
I will need to check my records but from memory,  my husband's  ancestor was Matthew Vine Chatterton  from Islington who went to NZ with or to join his brother. I think he took his family.
The Family stories go that the two brothers fought and never reconciled; one living on the north island and the other on the south island.
Some researchers thought they were not related branches  but I think that's not true.
His son was Raymond and that's my husband's  grandfather. Raymond had Walter who had Brian; my husband.  I hope to get in touch with Fran lands
Thanks again
Carlina
