My great great grandparents Jeremiah(known as Darby) Fitzpatrick and Catherine n?e Dillon emigrated to Australia, arriving in Portland Victoria in 1851. They sailed on the "Tasmania" with their three children Bridget 14, Austin 7 and Mary 3 .I believe a son Patrick may have died in Ireland. Catherine's parents are recorded as Phillip Dillon and Ann Camel. Mary's marriage certificate gave her place of birth as Lisdoonvarna and family tradition states that they were from Ballynalacken.
