Have been trying for 25 years to find parents of my gggrandmother Mary McKenna. The first record I have of her is her Australian daughter Birth Mary Catherine McKenna born Queensland, Australia 1874 and died 1874. Her birth and death certificate show mother as Mary McKenna no father listed. Mary's 2nd daughter Emma Theresa McKenna born Queensland 1876 mother Mary McKenna no father listed. All show Mary McKenna born Glasgow Scotland. I have Mary Catherine Births Certificate and show Mary McKenna 18 years born Scotland . Emma Theresa birth certificate also shows mother Mary McKenna born Glasgow Scotland her age 20, both certificates have across them Illegitimate.
Mary McKenna married a John Turner in Bowen Queensland 21 and the Marriage Certificate shows Mary born Glasgow Scotland parents Alexander McKenna - Occupation Engineer and mother May Anne Copeland. Her 2nd Marriage to George Bourne age 22 - Widow born Glasgow Scotland, parents Alexander McKenna - Engineer and mother Mary Anne Copleden,.
Mary McKenna dies (under the name of Mary Bourne) October 1900 in Australia and states period of residence in Australia 27 years in Queensland. Parents Alexand McKenna - Engineer no mother listed.
Have not been able to find when and how she migrated to Australia, or a marriage for Alexander McKenna and Mary Copeland, so any help would be greatly appreciated as I said I have been trying to trace her for 25 years.
Thanking
Jen
