Hi Dundee

The Rose Gafney married to Daniel Kenna is not mine but I noticed the paragraph below:-

"There is also a family arriving in Dec 1841 on the Lalla Rookh - James McGUIRE  and his wife Rose.  This Rose was also a GAFFNEY, parents James and Bridget from County Cavan.  This Rose was born around 1814, and they had two children with them, Catherine (2), and Bridget (3 months), with another two born after arrival.  This is too old for your Rose, but I am giving it to you in case you come across mention of this family and you will know to discount them."

I have a Rose Gaffney married to a James McGuire in my tree. They had two children Rose b. 1848 in Yass and and James b. 1851 in Goulburn. I wonder if this is the same couple?

Hi Wakatipu

I am related to John Theophilus Heeley via his son Edmund Heeley. How are you related?

I passed through Seymour at the beginning of the year and had a look around. I purchased a book on Seymour history and it mentions Dr Heeley in it and a bit of information about his father-in-law Peter Tiernan.

Both my brother-in-law and I are trying to gather info on Dr Heeley. I hadn't heard of him being on the Moana. Where did you get that info from.

Just as a little bit of side info I am currently in Sydney celebrating Gwen Heeley's 100th birthday.
