Hi, Just new to this site, so hopefully I'll do this right. I'm looking for information about Martin Dowlan's family. He was born in Jamestown, Leitrim, Ireland in 1829. His parents were Mary McLaughlin (born abt 1802) and Patrick Dowlan or Doolan. I don't have any information about his father other than his name.

Martin moved to Australia and died 16 Mar 1884. He married Elizabeth McKell in 1856 in Victoria, Australia. He supposedly had a sister, I think named Mary and a brother named James. (again I think). His mother was supposedly come to Australia with the brother but can't find too much info on that, but she did die in 1869 in Victoria, Australia. So did come at some time. So I'm looking for any info on his father Patrick and anything else about his family.  Sorry this is so long, but tried to provide as much info as I had on them. Thanks.

Hi ConnemaraKate and Mickym 1951,
Don't know if I'm doing this right, trying to send a thank you for the information that was replied to my message. (I'm not sure how to add it to the message I sent before though.) I will go through the information that you found and let you know how I go. I was really interested in the information from Ireland. I've tried before but found nothing. So now some progress. Thank you again, Much appreciated

Hi Stootee
 
It was Mike who found the info for you.  All you  have to do is click on "Reply" (pink) in the last message of the thread (which is this one) and a new window will open up for you to write your message.
