I have just had a look at Michael Slattery's details for arriving on  the portland in 1841

He was a native of Cork, Parish of Giffin Near Charleville  Mother Julia Omalley Co Limerick parish of All.....ey????
he was a labourer and 25 years old usefullness was good  no complaints

All three siblings are buried together and with their spouses in the Melbourne General Cemetery
To me this indicate that Honorah husband is buried with her, if that is so  the date of burial would be helpfull in  the search for his death.

Thanks for clearing  that up KatieHayes,

You  seem  to have done a good deal of research on  your family.  I  noted  that  the last birth in Victoria was 1848 so  he has died or disapperead as they did back then  in the years between.

Hi tropicalj,

I'm trying, but keep meeting dead ends... as with this family. It can be difficult because i am a person that has to see proof not just assume certain things. I have all the births death and marriages that i have been able to find and obtain. I like to be sure on a person.
There last child was born in 1853. Jeremiah and Honorah had Patrick 1842 in Sydney, Catherine Johanna 1848 in Tungamah Victoria, John 1849 in Tungamah Victoria and Ellen Agnes 1853 in Flemington Victoria.
Could he possibly have just left her and went and married someone else as i find a marriage of a Jeremiah Reardon in NSW around this time.

The family you are looking for are related to me
Mary and her sister Honorah O’Malley arrived in Australia in 1842
Their name of the shipping papers was “Mealy”
Mary (allegedly ) married my great great grandfather James Manton Flinn
She is buried in Rosedale cemetery in Victoria
And honorah married a convict called William walker in Maitland nsw

Their mother was Ellen and their baby sister was Ellen they had brothers Michael and James
Am open to chat with you
