Hello

 

My ancestor Elizabeth (Eliza) Sharkey was an Irish Famine Orphan sent to Port 
Phillip (Victoria, Australia) on the “Diadem” in 1849, arriving in 1850 from 
the Omagh Workhouse.

Shipping records give no indication of her parents. Her first daughter was 
named Ann, so I’m thinking this could have been her mother’s name. Her first 
son was named George Henry.

I have a DNA match with the Harpers of Co Donegal and also descendants of the 
Sharkeys of Bomacatall (Hugh Sharkey). I would like to find parents for 
Elizabeth Sharkey.

 

Many thanks for this wonderful website.
