Hello, I am trying to contact any descendants of Michael Murray and his wife Catherine McGovern who lived in the Port Macquarie and Kempsey area from 1844. Michael and Catherine were originally from Ireland and married in England. They arrived in Sydney in 1844 with a family of four (Mary Ann b.1837, Elizabeth b.1839, William J b.1841 and Mary b.1843) and went directly to Port Macquarie then Kempsey where another 6 children were born (Catherine b.1844,Ellen b.1846, John b.1848, Jacob b.1853, Thomas b.1854 and Michael b.1857). Michael's wife and daughter (Catherine) were drowned in the Macleay River in 1865 and he disappears after that time. Despite numerous attempts to locate a death for Michael he has proved most elusive. Any help with findimg out what happened to Michael would be appreciated, especially a date and place of death. Regards...Rex Toomey Port Macquarie
