Cleary's from Burncourt
« on: Friday 26 March 04 04:27 GMT (UK) »
Looking for info on James Cleary who married Margaret (unknown).  

Son Thomas b1817 transported as convict to Australia in 1846.

Any help and/or hints on where to look appreciated

Hi

Burncourt is in South Tipperary - just down from Cahir.

Cheers

Hi again

I believe Thomas was transported on the Lord Auckland 25/8/1846 - but have yet to confirm this.

I found Thomas Cleary's sentencing on the National Archives of Ireland website - Trial date 11/3/1846 - Petitioned 12/3/1846 in Clonmel by his father James (this is where I picked up their residence being in Burncourt).  Have not yet managed to find any further info on James or Margaret (maiden name unknown) in Burncourt though - most frustrating!

Do you have any hints and/or leads?

Cheers
Lieza
