    Smile PATRICK DOWD spouse HANNAH KENNY from EASKY

    PATRICK DOWD b 1805, HANNAH KENNY b 1812, and their children went to HOWICK in New Zealand in 1847 on the MINERVA as part of the Fencibles. Does any one know of them individually or as a family in Ireland?
    My g grandfather, BERNARD DOWD b 1839, Patrick's son , came to Australia. I have been trying to trace the family in Ireland without much success. Hope someone has them as part of their family and has more information than I. Thanks

    you need to know where one of the children were born to narrow down search , religion is also very important .

    Thanks Obbie, I This thread is linked to another I posted on Brickwalls. In looking at the replies from that thread I can see that I might have to step back to finding out who Bernard DOWD was. I thought he was the Son of Patrick and Hannah who went to NZ. I had researched him and had all the family in NZ for generations. BUT now I can see that I may have made a mistake and need to go back to my great grandfather BERNARD DOWD who with Sarah GOODMAN had the children listed below. The problem is that I had relied on a marriage in 1875 to, not Sarah, but STELLA GOODMAN. I thought it was close enough. That marriage leads back to Patrick and Hannah. The thread in Brickwalls is on "Edward GOODMAN and Mary FAHAN"
    Bernard DOWD's children were -
    1875. January 11 Birth Bernard DOWD in Australia. Birth Certificate No. 24147.
    1876 Bernard Thomas DOWD died aged 7m. in Carlton. Register No. 5003
    1877 Birth of Hannah Sarah DOWD in Collingwood Certificate No. 8063. Her mother is called Sarah Ann GOODMAN*.
    1880 Birth of Bernard Thomas DOWD* in Carlton (1/6) Reg. No. 1111 & 24147 MY GRANDFATHER
    1881 Birth of John Edward DOWD in Carlton. Certificate No. 14965 died in St Kilda in 1884 aged 3 months . Reg 10747
    1883 Birth of John Edward DOWD in Carlton. Certificate No. 14949
    1887 Birth of Margaret Teresa DOWD in Hotham, Melbourne Certificate No. 29236
    1886 Birth of Mary Ellen DOWD in Carlton. Certificate No. 8827
    1890 Death of Bernard DOWD* in East Melbourne age 50 reg 3216
    A Bernard DOWD voted in Wimmera in 1909, there is no record of a Bernard DOWD voting in Melbourne.
    1954 Death of Hannah Sarah WINTER nee DOWD aged 76 Certificate No. 16854

    I'd welcome your views.

    Thanks again for your help. The assistance of people on British-Genealogy.com has been wonderful!
