For the best part of 15 years I have been searching for the origins of my G.G.G.grandmother Sarah Lynchey who seems to have been born Mullan(s) or similar in County Down C 1785. Her father’s Christian name may have been Hugh or Charles.
Sarah, and a son Thomas, who I am also seeking information on, were in 1832 sentenced on the Isle of Man to transportation to New South Wales for stealing from a farm house.
Thomas was born C 1820 most likely in Ireland but possibly on the IoM.
Sarah was stated to be a widow in the court and other documents, and her husband’s name may have been Michael or John. Also her husband my have died in a cholera outbreak on the IoM in 1831.
Sarah lived in New South Wales until her death in Sydney in 1869. She has many descendents living in Australia today.
While I have 2500 names on my family tree as you can see I know little about Sarah.
