Another pair of brothers (John and Henry?) to New Zealand
I am looking to connect with any information of H (Henry?) McDonnell, brother of John. any information on their family and origin in Ireland would also be appreciated.
The Brothers arrived in NZ on the Rakaia in 1882 from Ireland via England.
I have summarised Johns family @ http://pws.prserv.net/pjc/genealogy/html/G50_10fd.htmlhttp://pws.prserv.net/pjc/genealogy/html/G50_10fd.html
All I know of Henry is that he was a witness at Johns marriage to Mary Casey.
NZ BDM reference 1891/74.
John was age 24 (i.e. born c1867) , Henry is believed to be the elder
The same certificate has entries for their parents that are pretty illegible but I thinkread asArchibaldandSuzan nee Walsh.
