I'd be grateful for any information on the family of Rose, John & Kate McInerney/McInnerney/McInerny. They emigrated from Ireland and arrived in Brisbane, Australia in 1880. Father was Patrick McInerney and mothers were Ann McGarry (Rose) and Margaret Lynch  (John & Kate). Rose was my great-grandmother. She stated on her marriage certificate that she was born in Columbkille, Longford and that her father was a farmer. John was born in Kildimo, Limerick and Kate in Tallow, Waterford and their marriage certificates give Patrick's occupation as Police Constable/Sergeant.
