Hello,
My name is Susan (Carroll) Gauci and I have been researching my Irish ancestors for some years. I have recently had a breakthrough in my Irish research. James Carroll (GGG grandfather) was tried in Tipperary Ireland on 7 April 1827 for sheep stealing, he received a life sentence and transported to New South Wales Australia per Eliza (3) in 1827.
On 20 July 1837 (10 years later) James Carroll made application to the Colonial Secretary’s Office in NSW for his wife Mary Pinner / Penner and seven children to join him in New South Wales. In 1837 Mary was a resident in Ballylooby Tipperary Ireland and known to Rev. Mr. Fitzgerald of Ballylooby, Rev. Mr. Palmer of Tubrid and Mr Doherty Esq.
James again applied for Mary and his children to join him in New South Wales on 18 June 1838 but this time there was only mention of Mary Pinner / Penner his wife and four children.
On 26 December 1841 the Irish female convict barque “Mexborough” arrived in Hobart Town Tasmania from Dublin Ireland. Included in the passengers were fourteen free settlers consisting of six women and their eight children. It is recorded that these women had received permission to join their convict husbands who had been transported to Sydney, NSW, Australia some time previously. These “free settlers” listed included Mary Pinner / Penner, Mary and Jane Carroll, Ann Fox and five children, Hannah Murphy and two children and Jane and Catherine Nowlan.
On 3 January 1842 the male convict barque “Prince Regent (2)” arrived in Hobart Town Tasmania from Dublin Ireland and included steerage passengers James Carroll (GG grandfather), Edward Carroll, Thomas Carroll, John Fox and eight male children under ten years of age.
Does anyone have an interest in the Carroll and Pinner / Penner families from Ballylooby or Tubrid in Tipperary Ireland? Any assistance in finding further information on these families or the direction I can be pointed in would be most welcome. Have the Roman Catholic Church records survived for these periods of time?
Kind regards Sue
