I am searching for information on Mary Daly who married Thomas Halion before 1814 in Ireland most likely Westmeath, Offlay or Kildare. They had 5 children that I know of Patrick born 1814, Honora and Thomas born 1823, Bridget born 1825 and Mary born 1827.
I have a baptism for an Anne Halion in Jan 1827 to Thomas Halion and Mary Daily in Tubber & Rosemount Co Westmeath sponsors John Daily and Mary Daily. I think this maybe the youngest daughter Mary. This is the only baptism I have found for any children to them.
Thomas Halion snr was transported as a convict to Australia in 1827 (date of trial was 18 July 1826 @ Kings Co).
On 27 Feb 1832 Thomas Henlion (Halion) applied for his wife Mary Daly and 5 children be sent to New South Wales, Australia at the expense of the Government. Mary and the children were residing in the parish of Kill, Newtown Co Westmeath.
On 24 Dec 1834 free passage was granted to Mary Daly and the children. (Thomas Healon).
All 5 children arrived in Australia 18 Dec 1849 on board the Success only his eldest son Patrick was married and his wife and children came too. Mary Daly was not on board and is listed as dead by her children.
I believe Mary Daly died between 1836 and 1849. Any information regarding Mary Daly/Halion would be much appreciated.
