keane/kane/cain family to Australia 1884
John Keane (spellings vary) & wife Kath/Catherine nee Duggan, (father John Duggan mother Bridget Managhan), arrived aboard Harbinger to Port of Melb Oct 1884 with children Bridget (married Michael Lavelle) Henry (aged 18) John Jnr (aged 24) & William (aged 16).A son Darley was born 1852, he may have remained in Ireland. Daughter Mary married Martin Dunbar.Bridget was born County Mayo circa 1871 so assume family from there.
William married Sarah Lavelle, daughter of Sabina (nee Meenahan)and John Lavelle.There is a connection to the families of Rielly/Reilly/Riley, Pardon/Purden, Lavell/e and Gibbons.Anyone know this family or where in County Mayo they originated?
