Hi Christine,
Thomas was my great, great, great grandfather. I've done a little research on Thomas and Mary (nee Maher). Upon arrival at Geelong they headed up to Ballarat where Thomas (snr) tried his hand at little mining.
Thomas (jnr) married married Margaret Goddard and it appears that they settled in the river areas between Tocumwal and Cobrham. Thomas and Margaret had 13 children (12 boys and one girl).
I have a range of documents, marriage and death certificates etc but I have not been able to trace the deaths of the original immigrants Thomas and Mary.
I'd love to be able to go back a bit further to Tipperary but have been unable to make that link so far.
If you'd like some more detail please drop me a line via email.
