hi,
i was hoping someone could provide me with information on Richard Gilroy.
This is as far back in my tree as i have climbed so far...
Richard Gilroy married to Elizabeth Amos around 1850's in Ireland.
Elizabeth born to Walter and Rachael Amos (who both died 1900).
Elizabeth born 1833 Fintona, Tyrone, Ireland.
Richard, Elizabeth and son James (born 1853, Enniskillen), immigrated to Australia 1854 on the Araminta (ship).
Richard died Australia 1884
Elizabeth died Australia 1873
We think that Richard's father's name was Patrick?? or it could be a middle name.
Please, if you can help, we are stuck at this point and are struggling to get any further back.
thanx.
