I'm searching for any records relating to THOMAS WILLIAM CASEY. Information held is very limited.

He was born on Balbriggan in 1846, his parents being John and Alice Casey. He died in Brisbane Australia on 30 November 1936

He married Catherine Donoughoe, born 1859. Her parents were Michael and Ellen Donoughoe. When and where they married I don't know. She died in Brisbane Australia on 2 July 1935

Thomas emigrated to Australia, had 10 children, the first, Thomas Charles William, being born in 1883.

Any advice on where to search for information- from Australia- will be greatly appreciated

  • Hi, I searched Ancestry.com.au and found Thomas William Casey arrival Sydney 28 September 1870 on the vessell Rangartira.  Origin Dublin. (Unassisted Immigration Passenger 1826-1922).

    He married Catherin Donoughoe on 6 October 1881 Queensland.  Source. Reg.year 1881, Reg.# 000505, page #2388.  (Births, deaths & marriages Queensland)

    He died 29 November 1936, Queensland. Reg.#B033729, page 299 (Australian deaths 1787-1985). States mother Alice Rigney, father John.

    Marriage and death only state the State. No suburb or town.  You can apply for a transcription from :

    email:  - Marilynr@marbract.com.au

    Web:  transcriptions.com.au

    They are not expensive, she has her prices on the web site.  I have used her.  A full transciption should give you more information.

    I hope this is of help to you.

    Hi Bryan,

    My name is reg casey and the great grandson of William. Are you the son of Bert and Ginnie Easter. Aunt Ginnie was Dads sister and I believe that I only met her the once when I was about 12 or 13 and they were living in Canberra. They were in brisbane for a visit. The caseys are a secretive lot and I have been trying to get information out of Dad for years now, but when you start to question him about his parents and grandparents, its just change the subject.  Dads 91 this year and is the last one still alive from that generation of the family.

    We have a pretty good history of Mums side but nothing about the casey's so it would be good to exchange notes.

    My email is regcasey789@gmail.com if you would like to get in touch.

    Have a look at the link at the top of the page. I believe that this is our grandfather from the other records that I can find, but I don't recognise any of these other names. I am going to try and contact him tomorrow to get some more information. I look forward to hearing from you.

    regards

    Reg Casey mob 61 0420978891
