Seeking information about my g/g grandmother Rosanna Grace who migrated to Melbourne, Victoria [ Australia ] about 1842/1843.

Born 1819 , Danesfort, Kilkenny, Ireland

Married 1840 to James Edmund Foley [ 1819/1860 ] in Danesfort.

Died Melbourne 1881.

I am unable to find any information on her parents or any siblings and would be grateful for any assistance.

Thank you, Sue Sloan

    Welcome to Ireland Reaching Out!

    Below is a transcription of the likely baptismal record for Rosanna. I could not find any siblings for Rosanna. The Danesfort parish records start in 1819 http://registers.nli.ie/parishes/0983   so if Rosanna had older siblings records will not be available.
