Title: 8-7-98. Letter from Marilyn McKenna
Author: Marilyn McKenna
Publication: Sender: Marilyn Mckenna Date: 08-07-1998
Text: Dear Andy,
How is it going? I have some information for you. Charles was born in Scotland in 1818. When I went to the Mormon church I did some checking up and was able to use the computer. They have a program called Family Search. Through that I was able to go into Family Link which is Tasmanian Families 1803-1899. I had a great time searching and came up with some interesting things. I am going back to recheck some stuff, that I missed and am hoping will fill in some blanks. Anyhow here is what eventuated. I will try and write as to what came up on the screen, with a added note also.
Charles Mckenna B 1818 Scotland. No mention of his mother or father.
m. Catherine McHugo. Didn't have her birthdate or marriage date or place. Also her mother & Father weren't listed. It showed their children. (Am going to do print out next time I go.)
Mary Mckenna B 1853. No place mentioned. Mother & Father weren't listed.
m. Patrick Sexton. B 1838 Ireland
Children: Mary Sexton, B 23 Sept Hobart Tasmania.
No other children to Patrick & Mary listed.
Margaret Theresa Mckenna. B 1859 England D 13 Feb 1878 Hobart tas (age 19)
This is a coincidence of the previous date we had. There was no mention of her mother or father.
Christopher Peter Mckenna B 1866 Hobart Tasmania
Mother: Catherine McHugo, Father: Charles Mckenna
M: Mary Jane Lane, 21 Sept 1892, Hobart Tas
Father: Daniel Sydney Lane, Mother: Sarah Ann Bower.
Children: Charles B: 30 Jan 1893, Hobart
Kathleen B: 21 Jun 186, Hobart Christopher B 27 Sept 1899, Gordon Tas, D: 2 Nov 1899 Gordon Tas 3 weeks old
Sydney Peter B: 28 Jun 1898 Tas I can't believe the birthdate. I has to be a mistake as we have Christopher B 25 Dec 1863
John Phillip Mckenna
I couldn't find out anything on him. Nothing on Tas Pioneer Index either. Will check under Mckinnon.
Elizabeth Mckenna B: 15 Aug 1852, Hobart
m. Arthur Tulloch 30 Nov 1882, Hobart
B: 1857, Hobart Tas
Children: Mary Monica B: 11 Sept 1885, Hobart
Imelda B: 30 Dec 1890, Hobart Frances B: 2 Dec 1894, Hobart I don't recall seeing Roberth Arthur and no Charles Tulloch listed.
Jane mary McKenna B: Mar 1861
m. Hery Charles Horlock (B: 1862) m.4 Dec 1884, Hobart
Children: Henry charles
Leslie Gordon Rufus Reginald Cecil Vivian B: 9 Jan 1891 Vera Mary Jane Lillian Margaret No mention of Cyril Horlock. All birth dates are same as we have.
Catherine Mckenna B: 2 Nov 1867, Hobart
Arthur Sauel Watts Currie (B: 24 Apr 1864, Campbell Town Tas) m. 19 Oct 1892, Hobart Tas
Children: Lear B: 23 Sept 1896, Hobart Tas
Andrew Malcolm B: 11 Jul 1898, Clarence Tas Arthur Edward Walter B: 20 Nov 1893, Clarence Amelia B: 25 Jan 1895, Hobart No mention of cissie or Margaret.
Well that's it! As I said at the beginning this info came from Tas link through the Family Search program. I intend going through it all again just in case I missed something, at least I will be double checking dates as I go. Now its LEITRIM in Ireland. Also Roscommon, Ireland, not Roscommon Island, Ireland.
Also Skye in Scotland, is County of Inverness.
I need you to photo copy me Charles Edward Mckenna Birth Certificate (B: 15 Aug 1855 Tas) Also need to know where Catherine McHugo death date came fro D: 15 Jan 1908 Tas.
Could you recheck Barbara Tulloch death date. I have she died in 1976 but no place. Have looked on Vic records & wills & probate but haven't found anything.
Also I need to know where Robert Arthur Tulloch born. Brth date: 3 Jan 1888. Not on Tas index or Vic index. I think that's about it. One more, Ann Mary Mahoney. D 5 Aug 1988, but where.
That should keep you going for a while. I can't find shipping records for Tasmania. Well I will leave you will all of this, hoping to hear from you soon.
Miss you heaps, love Marilyn
