Searching for Issacs
« on: Wednesday 09 January 13 10:37 GMT (UK) »
Hi everyone  :)

I'm searching for any living relative of my 3rd cousins family in Australia. Here's what I do know about her. Her name was Catherine Ryan b. 1909 in Tipperary, Ireland to John Ryan and Mary Jane Dwyer. She married Roy Edward Issacs in Surrey, England in 1936. Between then and 1954, they immigrated out to Western Australia. I have them on the Electoral Rolls from 1954 - 1980. I believe, from what other family members have given me, that they had two children - Gerard Michael & Patricia Issacs. Not sure if either are living.

I cannot find their passage out to Australia, nor any deaths for either.

Any help would be much appreciated,

Annie
The surnames, which I am interested in are; Maternal side: Ryan, Kevin, Grant, Grady, Gleeson, Walsh, Dwyer, Paternal side: O' Dwyer, Woodlock, Rochford & Britton - all in Tipperary; and Kelly and Hoynes in Laois.

Ryan, Campbell, Luttrell, Grant, Grahame, Bainbridge and Brown in Queensland, Australia

Tighe in Victoria, Australia.

Grant in Philadelphia, Sullivan and Penny in New York; and Britton in Connecticut

You can search for recent obits here http://www.westannouncements.com.au/obituaries/thewest-au/

They show you first 30? words free and you can pay $4.95 to see the rest.  In the children's case they seen to be funeral notices rather than death notices.

My god...what such quick replies, but I'm grateful for each and every one of them. @Rosball - I found the sons obit on West Announcements as well as the names of his family members and grandchildren  :) So that's given me a new lead. I had the year of 1986 for Catherine's death, but that's helped alot. I think their daughter, Patricia is still alive as it says "brother of Patricia" on the announcement.

But thank you Rosball...its got me a little bit further than I was  :D

Pleasure Annie  :)

How did I miss that death notice ?- welll it's getting late here  :(

And yes that seems to be the wrong Patricia F Ward death judging by her death notice (which I also missed  :( )

cheers,
   Ros

adding : and if parents married in 1936 then 1950 is rather early  ??? for their daughter to be marrying so I have gone totally astray there  :(
