Hi everyone, thank you for reading in advance. Looking for any type of information regarding my ancestors, this is all i know about them.
My 2nd great grandmother, Hannah Williams (nee Shea) migrated from Tipperary Ireland to Melbourne Victoria Australia in 1865 by herself at the age of 18yrs. Her parents I believe their names are Robert SHEA and mother was Margaret SHEA (nee RYAN)
Hannah was born about 1844.
Robert & Margaret also had a son James Shea who was baptised 18 Nov 1852 at Borrisoleigh, County Tipperary, Ireland - according to the Catholic Parish Registers.

Simone:
I found a number of additional baptismal records on the subscription site FindMyPast.ie
Ellen December 13 1844 Judith January 25 1846 James April 2 1848 Edmund April 2 1848 Denis August 21 1849 James October 6 1850 Robert October 19 1851 James November 18 1852 Bridget December 5 1853
Your Hannah could be the Ellen in 1844. Looks there were two James' who died young before the 1852 James.

I think the Shea’s that I have could be different, there are some ryans as well, i'll have to go through some stuff and get back to you.
I think the name Margaret Shea (Ryan) looks familiar though.
