Hello David, My great grandmother was Anne Smith nee MOGAN. Anne was born c1846 at Kinvarra, County Galway and her parents were Patrick MOGAN and Margaret REYZAN or REYTAN - her name is very hard to decipher. Ann arrived in Australia on 21st May1867 on the 'Light Brigade'. At this stage I have been unable to find any further information on the family.
