RYAN; LIM,IRL; 1850 Hi I am searching for any information on Mary Ryan who married a John Riordan (or possibly a Patrick John or John Patrick) circa 1850's. Mary and John had a daughter Bridget born circa 1862, birthplace given as Limerick, Co. Limerick, Ireland. Something may have happened to either John or Mary as their daughter Bridget was raised by a James & Mary (nee Lynch) Riordan in Bruree, Co. Limerick. I think James may have been John's brother. Bridget left Ireland and came to Australia some time shortly before 1886. If anyone has any information about the surname Ryan or Riordan I would love to hear from you. Many thanks, Lisa.
