Hi Al:

My gggrandfather Timothy Tierney b 1799 Ireland married Ellen Waters / Watters b 1801 
in Cashel, County Tipperary, IRE. They had 2m and 4f. Timothy was deported to Australia 
in 1835. 

Ellen and the children came to Nepean around 1835. 

I read on the website that she was a widow. Probably just a good story. 
Timothy was paroled in Australia in 1853. We don't know anymore about him but we have 
some convict papers from Australia that could lead to info.
 
Ellen came to Nepean with:
Julia b 1824 who married Thomas Fullan and moved to Iowa, USA.
Sarah ?
William b 1827 who married Catherine Ryan in Ogdensburg, NY, USA
Ellen ?
John b 1833 m Bridget Nash (my ggrandfather) Ellen lived with him and family.
Mary b 1834 m John Brophy
 
Website reported that three children stayed in Nepean (Mary, John and Julia 
for a while before Iowa) and three went to the states( probably Ellen and 
Sarah and William)
 
Surnames in this new info I received are: Fullan, Ryan, Nash, Brophy, McKenna, 
Watters, Travers, Newman, McClevey, Griffin, Watt, Houlihan, Cayes, Madden, 
Brophy, LaPoint / Lapointe (adopted by John Tierney), Brennan, and many more.
