Hi all,
I am looking for any Irish information on Patrick Blakeney (3rd great grandfater) DOB approx 1815 Athy Kildare and his brother Michael Blakeney DOB approx 1822 Athy Kildare. I have most of the Australian information that I need, but nothing on the Irish side of things prior to arrest.
Both sent to Australia in 1838 for 7 years for receiving a stolen pig, both were butchers.
Any information would be greatly appreciated - thanks Brett

Brett,
Per Roots Ireland, here are some records for the RC parish of Athy. There are gaps from Jul 1812-Jun 1815 & Jan 1817-Dec 1821, so I did not locate a Patrick; but below are his possible family members....there could also have been more before Michael if they fell into the gaps years.
Michael Blakney 31 Mar 1822, parents Hugh Blakney & Catherine Moran, sponsors Patt & Margaret Moran
Margaret Blakney 13 Mar 1825, parents Hugh Blakney & Catherine Moran, sponsors James Toole & Cath. Beacon
Hugh Blackney 23 Sep 1827, parents Hugh Blackney & Catherine Moran, sponsors James & Sarah Lawlor
Mary Blakeny 26 Jul 1829, parents Hugh Blakney & Catherine Moran, sponsors John & Peggy Moran
Patt Blakeny 3 Jul 1832, parents Hugh Blakeny & Catherine Moran, sponsors David Braddish & Mary Moran
For Michael's birth, the address was Ardree, and for Margaret's it was Spring Lodge. No other addresses were given.
Regards,
Carolyn

Brett,
To add to Carolyn's Post, please see attached records: Tithe record is 1824 - In Roots Ireland the first name for Mary's father is recorded as "Loughlin" which may "Lorcan", a fairly common first name in parts of Ireland.
