I am looking for descendants of Ellen Minihane and Daniel Walsh who probably immigrated to NSW in the 1880s.
Ellen Minihane was born in 1852 in Ballyally, Skibbereen in southwest County Cork, Ireland. She married Daniel Walsh in 1873 who was born in 1850 in Skeagh, Skibbereen.
They lived in Ballyally until Daniel's death in 1883 and had six children:
Jeremiah born 1874; John born 1876; Mary born 1878; Daniel born 1879; Margaret born 1881 and Daniel born in 1883.
It is believed that Ellen emigrated to NSW with her children, ca 1888. Ellen's mother, Mary Keohane Minihane, had previously emigrated to NSW with Ellen's siblings in 1874 after her husband, Denis Minihane died.
If you have any connections to these families, please contact me at
