Hi Listers I'm trying to find information on my gggrandmother's second husband Hugh McNeish. His death cert says born Ireland 1824 and that he was a resident in N.S.W. Australia for 20 years , he died at Grafton N.S.W. Australia 3rd Dec. 1892. He married my gggrandmother ,Ellen McGowan(nee Murphy) 25th May 1872 at Grafton N.S.W. Australia. I have not been able to find his entry into Australia so don't know anything about his immigration. Hoping someone can help. Thank you. Jan Australia

Hi Jan in Australia - McNeish is a Scottish surname, apparently. There is a McGowan Family Tree at Ancestry.com with notation of Ellen Murphy and date of 1818 Clare, Ireland; Death NSW, Australia, Spouse Hugh McNeish. Is that a submission of yours? Someone else's? I don't have a subscription to Ancestry, so can't find out more.
