John and Nano Cormack, Kilkenny to Queensland 1873

Only 12 of John and Nano Cormack's children came to Queensland on The Royal Dane arriving 16 Jan 1873.
Children were: Julia Mary, Michael Henry, Elizabeth, Annie Theresa, Honora (Nora/Norah), John Joseph, Margaret, Susan Dympna, Louisa Patricia, Olivia Mary, Agnes Harriette, Gerald Joseph.
Maria, Johanna, Charlotte and Gerald are not listed on the ship's passenger list. But Maria is supposed to have died in Qld in 1885, and Charlotte married in Cooktown, Qld, in 1876 - maybe some or all of them came to Aust at another time.
Note that there are two "Gerald", one born in 1854, one born in 1872, the latter presumably being the "Garrett - infant" listed on the ship's passenger list.
I have details for all the children who came to Queensland: birth, death, marriage date, spouse, their own children, details of their daily lives and family interactions.
Honora Josephine, for example, b.20 July 1859, d.5 Aug 1917 in Qld; married Charles Hugh MacDonald 25 April 1881 in Qld; had 8 children viz: Jessie Louise 1882, Flora Isabel 1884, Jenny Margaret 1886, Flora Mable 1888, Charles Tennant Shields 1890,Alexander Douglas 1892, Georgina Ethel 1894, Gerald Graham 1896.
I have a few further details on the children of that marriage.
