Hi Listers Seeking info on the above families. The Quirk siblings are descended from John Quirk (convict per Larkins) and Anne Oates ( who re-married after John's death at Bankstown in 1853). Apparently, the family moved to Mount Keira following the new marriage to Thomas Gilham, as Thomas Gillam is noted as a farmer at Mt Keira on 1872 Grevilles. Children by John Quirk are Anne b. 1845, Catherine, b.1847, Edward b.1849 d.1899 (fell from Signal Hill), Jane b.1850 and Ellen Amelia b.1853. Ellen Amelia Quirk married Thomas William GALLAGHER (son of James Gallagher) 9/7/1877 at St Francis Xavier Wollongong. Issue of this marriage: Mary Ann b. 1878, John b.1879, Margaret Jane b.1880, Ellen Amelia b.1882, Joseph b.1889, Ruby M b.1891 and Thomas Edwin b.1899. I'd love to hear from anyone with any knowledge of the above families. Regards Viv Callaghan
