Hi Rose,

Thanks for your detailed reply, however you have confused some of my original information.  I have not stated that John and Patrick Hogan were convicts.  John Hogan and Patrick Hogan arrived as free men.  Their parents were Rody and Mary Hogan.  Patrick died at yabba yabba, not Eganstown.   Both brothers married women named Johanna - John married Johanna McInerney (they remained at Eganstown); Patrick married Johanna Ryan (raised family at Yabba Yabba; after Patrick died, Johanna moved to Matong, NSW)

It is Joseph McInerney who l thought may be a convict.  Brothers Joseph and Patrick McInerney were sentenced for life on charges of manslaughter.  I haven't established if this Joseph McInerney is the same person related to me.

I don't believe that the Hogans that l am related to, arrived as early as 1853.  Patrick Hogan didn't arrive until 1867-68.  That is most likely him that you found on the Post Office index.  Where did you source this?  Patrick and Johanna's first son, Rody, was born in ireland.

Tipperary / Hogan / McInerney from Borrisoleigh

Hi,

I am searching information regarding John Hogan, son of Rody Hogan and Mary Kennedy from Borrisoleigh.  Rody and Mary died when John was quite young, and so he was raised by his uncle, Matthew Hogan.  John emigrated to Victoria, Australia sometime in the 1850's.  He possibly had a brother Patrick who married a Johanna Ryan.

John became a gold miner in Eganstown, Victoria (named after John Egan, also from Borrisoleigh.  John Hogan married Johanna McInerney.

Johanna was born in Melbourne in 1853, to Joseph McInerney and Ellen Connors.  Joseph was native to Tippereary (town not known).  Joseph and his brother Patrick were both convicts, arriving in NSW in 1829 aboard Eliza 2.  They were sentenced to life for manslaughter.  Their parents were Stephen McInerney and Bridget Foley.  It is believed that Ellen Connors was an Irish famine Orphan, arribving in Melbourne aboard the Pemberton in 1849.  Her parents were Patrick Connors and Johanna Brown, also from Tipperary.

Any contact with other family members would be most appreciated.
