Surnames: HARRINGTON, DESMOND
I am searching for anyone who may be connected to James HARRINGTON and Mary DESMOND. At one time they lived in Geelong and had 2 daughters named Sarah and Mary and a son named James. Sarah married in Victoria to John Alexander McINTOSH and they had a son named Roy Lionel Carrington McINTOSH.

Hi Wendy,

I am not related.

Do you have the surnames tangled?

There is this marriage....

Name: Mary J Harrington
Spouse: James H Desmond
Marriage: 1923 - Waverley, New South Wales


Do you have any timeframes, when these people might have lived?
Early 1800's, or more recent?

Hi Wendy,

With no timeframes, it is a bit hard. Maybe this marriage, is the one that you refer to, in 1870?


Name: Sarah Harrlngton
Spouse: John Mcintosh
Marriage: 1870 - Victoria

Thank you for your interest Mary. Yes this is my family. I'm especially interested in any information on Mary Desmond and James Harrington. I have no information on them whatsoever except their names. The surnames of these two people is correct as I have the marriage certificate of Sarah Harrington and John McIntosh.

I have struck a dead end with Mary and James but I have information on Sarah and John McIntosh and their decendants.

Hi Wendy,

Can you please post on here, all the details from the Sarah HARRINGTON and John McINTOSH, marriage certificate?

That way I will get a picture of where Sarah was born, how old she was, what her father's occupation was, etc.

HI,
Quite a few James and Mary HARRINGTON combinations. Might have to check out a few and narrow them down.

There are 2 who died and are buried in Ballarat. (although ages??)
Area : GN
Section : -8
Grave : 28
HARRINGTON JAMES 63 2/03/1884
HARRINGTON MARY 81 1/06/1899

This might be the deaths reg's

Mary Harrington 1899 Ballarat, Victoria Unknon born abt 1818
James Harrington 1884 Ballarat, Victoria Jas, Kate(WALSH) born abt 1821

James birth date here would fit with a James who arrived Tasmania 1842 aged 21yo.
