I see a marriage in 1855 for a Rosa GAFFNEY to Young RAITANG (bit of a weird name) at Dungog (FamilySearch), but no follow up family.  This might be the one mentioned above.

GAFFNEY Rosa m. RAITANG Young 1855 #V18551106 43B      
 Parish: Australian Agricultural Company; Dungog; Eldon; Stroud; Uffington, Church of England

There is some information in the Australian Newspapaers on line with reference to a Daniel KEnna who died in 1898 aged 100 at Bathhurst.

This could be your Danie Kenna, but I am only assuming and we all know the value of a certificate.

This Daniel Kenna's headstone can be seen at

note it does say the death was indexed as KINNA

Hi Dundee

The Rose Gafney married to Daniel Kenna is not mine but I noticed the paragraph below:-

"There is also a family arriving in Dec 1841 on the Lalla Rookh - James McGUIRE  and his wife Rose.  This Rose was also a GAFFNEY, parents James and Bridget from County Cavan.  This Rose was born around 1814, and they had two children with them, Catherine (2), and Bridget (3 months), with another two born after arrival.  This is too old for your Rose, but I am giving it to you in case you come across mention of this family and you will know to discount them."

I have a Rose Gaffney married to a James McGuire in my tree. They had two children Rose b. 1848 in Yass and and James b. 1851 in Goulburn. I wonder if this is the same couple?

Hi Gail,

Australian documentation should confirm whether or not it is the same family.  The parents' death certs should list all their children.

James and Rose McGUIRE may have had another two children indexed as MAGUIRE:

V1846390
63/1846
MAGUIRE, MARGARITE
Parents JAMES & ROSE
at Campbelltown

6715/1857
MAGUIRE,   THOMAS
Parents JAMES & ROSE
at GOULBURN

If you think this Thomas is another son, as he was born after civil registration commenced his birth cert should list siblings and both parents' places of birth.
