Hi Everyone, I'm trying to trace the parents, and brothers and sisters of Patrick Kirwin who lived in County Wexford before emigrating to Australia with his wife Margaret O'Grady and son James (b1839). I know of a Mary Kirwin form Wexford of the same era but that is all I know. I would love to hear from anyone able to help? Cheers Dave

I have an ancestor Elisabeth Kirwin who was born in Liverpool around 1816.She married John Thorley Lester,who was a shipwright.Her parents were Irish but I don't know where they came from in Ireland.They may have been relatives of your Kirwins but I'm afraid I have no further information at present.
Regards, Avril.

Hi David,
I am also trying to find Patrick and Margaret in Ireland, which of their sons are you related to.
Are you an Aussie, I am in Victoria, in contact with two others trying to find where Patrick and Margaret came from, we are all from his son Laurence
