Re-sending as it doesn't appear to be posting. ----- Original Message ----- From: D.I. To: [email protected] Sent: Monday, October 10, 2005 9:30 AM Subject: Dunne As I've been absent from the board for some time, I'll re-list my information: Thomas DUNNE Born 22/12/1791 Timolin to Murtagh DUNNE and Helena/Elinor/Eleanor KEOGH. Three siblings: John born 21/11/1790 Anne born 13/04/1794. John born 14/05/1797 Births registered Castledermott. Timolin is a few km north of Castledermott near Moone. Co. Kildare. Thomas is my GG Grandfather and was in Melbourne, Australia, in 1841. He emigrated quite late in life (around 50 years old) and was a widow when he married Priscilla/Hannah PRICE from Devon, England in Melbourne on 12/05/1845. He had enough money to purchase several acres of land in the Moonee Ponds area. Thomas was a farmer. He died 17/04/1855 Age 64. Collingwood and is buried in Melbourne General Cemetery. Plot 107 I have records of his movements here in Australia but can't find him on any passenger lists from Ireland to Oz. This is what I'd like to find most of all. Most of the Thomas Dunn/es listed are too young. Ring any bells with anyone? Any help really appreciated. I have checked with Kildare Heritage Centre on visits to Ireland and they've given me all the records they have. Dale. QLD AUST
