Robert Rickerby from Ireland
My ancestor, Robert Rickerby, along with his sister, Jane, migrated to Australia in 1841. Robert was born in 1813 in Tinahely (we think), County Wicklow, Ireland. Tinahely is not far from Shillelagh. We can't find out much about Robert's parents, but believe that his mother may have been a Mary Nolan. The ship they travelled to Australia on embarked from London, which seems odd, but maybe is not unusual. We wondered if they might have had relatives in England. Does any of this ring a bell with anybody?
