Peter Malone and his brother Edward came to NSW early 1860s. Their parents were Patrick Malone and Mary Bourke. They listed their place of birthe as Castleconnell. Edward marrried Mary Tierney 1879 in Sydney NSW and emigraed to Washington State in the 1880s and hand many sons there. While Peter Malone married Bridget Fahey 1865 and had six chiidren. He was a police constable in country NSW.
i have not found any information on their existence in Casstleconnell except for a departure and arrival for Edward in 1862. I know there were many Bourke/Burkes in the area Any information on the Malone's or the Bourkes would be appreciated.

Below is the 1850 Griffiths valuation head of household listing for Stradbally parish. There are a lot of Bourke/Burke entries and four Malone entries. No Patrick Malone but possibly, he was not leasing property at that point. There was a Peter Malone and if your Peter was the oldest son possibly Peter is his grandfather.
RC church records start in Stradbally parish in 1850. Here is the link to the parish church. http://www.killaloediocese.ie/parish/castleconnell/
