Marriage 1562/1862 JACQUES WILLIAM - ONEILL MARY ANN - BURRANGONG * 15 Nov

Death 9129/1903 JACQUES MARY A - CORNELIUS - MARY - ANNANDALE * 14 Aug

I don't have arrival for Mary Ann born Ireland abt 1838. I don't know if she arrived with her parents.

Looking to see if the right deaths can be found for Cornelius and Mary.

There are several Cornelius O'Neills in Trove.

Thanks Ellie.

Mary A was the only O'Neill on that vessel in 1855. Perhaps her parents didn't arrive.

I have no info re siblings. Can't say at the moment if she followed siblings or not.

I think the name Cornelius O'Neill is rather common.
