He and his wife Catherine (nee O'Donnell) and son Michael came out to Australia in 1852 on board The New Zealander. We have been unable to find out where James and Catherine were born but believe they may have married in Limerick as their son Michael was born there. It is believed that James' father was Michael as well. You say thay your Michael had 14 siblings and wonder if one may have been James born around that time. Our James had 11 children, including a Timothy, Michael, John, James, Edward and Francis. Do any of these names come up in your tree. All the boys and girls except for Michael were born in Victoria. Hope to hear from you. Kind regards, Lucille
