Thanks Merryderry. Agreat help. I am in Australia I am descended from William Atwell whose marriage you have shown me. I have found here relatives of Daniel Atwell. So we know that William and Daniel came to Australia. But we are wondering if we can trace if William and Daniel have any other brothers or sisters?

Hi
Aghadowey and Maryderry
Thanks for the information That clears up the discrepencies on the two death certs.
Working from Australia is interesting. William Atwell and Jane Willis came to Australia in approx 1856. We are trying to trace the ship etc. But in the BMD's for Queensland we have the birth of 5 children but the deaths later of 6. There must have been children born in Ireland so we will have work on that. But death certs are iffy because the details sre given by a child of the marriage.  We are trying to sort out the differences in the two death certs regarding the section headed CHILDREN. I believe Jane willis gave the details on Williams cert and Janes info was given by the son George.  The two lists differ so its more work.  I was wondering if you can find out if there were any children born in Ireland. If its too much to ask just say so

Your info cleared up the mystery of the difference on the death certs. William & Jane Atwell migrtated to Queensland Australia when he was approx 22. I am wonderig what was the occupation of the two fathers of William and Jane.
