My ancestor is Susan Conlon who emigrated to Australia. Her father is noted on her death certificate as Patrick Conlon, farmer, born Enniskillen, (could be parish not town) Ireland. Susan had a sister Anne born approx 1846 who emigrated to Australia on the Hotspur in 1863. Anne's native place was noted as Dromore, County Tyrone. Susan also had a brother John born approx 1844, who emigrated to Australia with Anne on the Hotspur in 1863. John's native place was noted as Kilskeery, County Tyrone. Parent's are noted on Anne and John's ship records as Patrick & Anne Conlon, Dromore, County Tyrone. Shipping records note that sister Susan was already in the colony (Australia) when Anne & John emigrated. Susan is buried in the Uralla cemetery in the NSW Northern Tablelands, Australia. She married Frederick Ward at Grafton, NSW. We have documentation which confirms the relationship between Susan and Anne. Anne's death record notes her father's name as Patrick and her mother's name as Bridget (not Anne). A Griffith valuation has been found showing a Patrick Conlon farming at Tonyglaskan townland circa 1860, close to Kilskeery, Parish Enniskillen. We do not yet know if this is Susan's father. Anyone with links to this family is kindly requested to make contact.
