Thanks Geoff.

Shellharbour = Kiama = south of Sydney.

Ipswich = west of Brisbane

No birth on Qld. index 1840 - 1856 for a Mary DUNN.

1316/1846 V18461316 65 DUNN MARY JOHN CATHARINE
1318/1846 V18461318 63 DUNN MARY JOHN CATHARINE

3030/1854 V18543030 72 DUNN MARY A JOHN CATHERINE

The age at death points to 1854 but the Vol 72 says Ipswich.

I'll look those up at the local library tomorrow morning.

All three of those volumes are RC.

No marriage for John Dunn to Catherine Murphy.

No birth for Mary Ann as Dunn or Murphy.

No death for John Dunn.
If this is correct, John and Catherine were already married when they arrived:

Catherine Dunn
Birth Year: abt 1816
Age: 25
Arrival Date: 16 Sep 1841
Vessel Name: Gilbert Henderson
With a John Dunn [20], parents = James & Catherine [both living]. Farm Labourer. b. Kilkenny. RC.

Catherine's parents = Patrick & Margaret Murphy. Dairy Maid. b. Kilkenny. RC.

If the info in post #5 is correct, John was a shoemaker, not a farm labourer :rolleyes:

The 1853 death/burial [John Dunn] can't be right if the arrival is correct, because that age = 50y, John was b. c1820, of course it could be an error with the age :rolleyes:
