I would love to be there seeing as Thomas Meagher is high on my lists of people I love to read about and research, I would be interested to know if you have acess to this book if it mentions his time in Tasmania at all and the girl he married and the child they left behind in a little grave. All the best for the launch of the book on Michael Cavanagh also Cheers Cara ----- Original Message ----- From: <tonymccarthy@eircom.net> To: <WATERFORD@rootsweb.com> Sent: Wednesday, November 24, 2010 1:58 AM Subject: [WATERFORD] Michael CAVANAGH (1820 - 1900) > Michael CAVANAGH was born in Cappoquin in 1820, was involved in the 1849 > rebellion, went on the run and left Ireland for USA.
