RYAN - Victoria

[Ryanresearcher]

Hello Ryan researchers

I was so excited to read your chat! I had "lost" John Andrew  ;DRYAN from NZ but now have "found" him through your messages.  He was born in Bendigo, emigrated to Otago NZ early to mid 1860s and at some time returned to Victoria. I wonder if his mother, Bridget Theresa RYAN (nee HENNESSY) and sister, Catherine Eleanor RYAN, also moved to Victoria?

His father, Edward (sometimes recorded as Edmond) Gubbins RYAN, died in Dunedin in 1884. He and Bridget married in Bendigo in 1857. Edward was born c1832 in Ireland.

Did John Andrew and Honora have only the three sons?
Does anyone know anything of Bridget and/or Catherine?

Thank you!

Welcome to Rootschat, Ryansearcher.

Here are links to some of the other threads that Lisa23 has posted about the Ryan family. I don't know if they'll be helpful to you or not, but you may find them interesting.

One of those threads answers your  question  about children for John Andrew and his wife.

I'm having a look to see if I can find anything else for you.

Hi Dee

Thanks very much for your prompt reply. It's so satisfying to fill in gaps and this one has been puzzling me for several years!

 

Very happy!

The index number on the list is 195
 Name  RYAN, Norah. She was aged 3 months and the comment says  Daughter of Honora RYAN  (  index number193).
 
The index number on the list is 194
Name RYAN, Patrick. He was aged  3 months and the comment says Son of Honora RYAN ( index number193)
 
The index number on the list is193

Name  RYAN, Honora Born Abt. 1867. She died on 6 Nov 1900 and was aged 33.The comments read  Mother of Patrick ( index no.194) & Norah (index no.195); sister of Edward FINN ( index number196).

There are a great many RYAN's in the area's cemeteries.

                                                           (Sister of John Andrew-found thanks to your newspaper reference! Not married.)

Only information I can add is that Cath. Eleanor was aged 47 and died in Bendigo.

I can't find a death reg. for Catherine Sophia Ryan for 1915.
