I am researching my QUINN family from Tipperary, Ireland. The family emigrated to NSW, Australia late 1860s and 1875.

 

The details I have:

 

Father: Patrick QUINN born 29/01/1840 Carrick-On-Suir died 17/08/1923 Bellingen, NSW, Australia. Known as John QUINN in Australia.

 

Mother: Bridget QUIGLEY born 31/05/1839 Kilcommon died 30/08/1881 Bellingen, NSW, Australia.

 

I cannot locate the births of the two boys born in Ireland before the family emigrated. Thomas was born around 1864 and Martin around 1866. Patrick emigrated in late 1860s and Bridget, Thomas and Martin followed in 1875 on the "Surrey".

 

Nor can I find when and how Patrick came to Australia in the late 1860s.

 

Thank you very much,

Bronwyn
