This is my new focus in my family research. James David Crowley states on his papers that his parents are David Crowley and Catherine Mehegan. I have exhausted every avenue in trying to find a link to them even to the point of putting an advertisment in an Irish Newspaper to which i had a couple of replies but nothing worked out.
I don't know what is the big secret about trying to find out about the CROWLEY family.
I know James Crowley emigrated to australia in 1868
Married Catherine Cameron in 1873
Read the newspaper reports of Divorce proceedings
I know where James is buried and when he died
The dates to when he was born are conflicting - some say 1843 others say 1837.
There are Irish Church Records for James David Crowley being baptised in November 1837 to David Crowley and Catherine Mehegan.
On his death certificate he stated he had never been married nor had any children.
He stated that his parents were David Crowley and Catherine Mehegan.
Some of my Crowley relatives have been to Ireland and could find nothing.
I am just interested in knowing what kind of a person my great grandfather James Crowley was. My grandpa James Duncan told me that he grew up with his
CAMERON Grandparents in Beaconsfield, Victoria.
I don't really know where to start looking anymore.
Maybe Yarrawonga where he and Catherine lived. I doubt Corowa NSW would have anything on him - that is where he died.
Have to rethink where i look next.
