I am trying to track an Edwin and Eliza Courtenay of Armagh, parents of Mary Jane Courtenay who married Edward Bunting around 1836 and emigrated to Queensland with her family. Has anyone stumbled across any data pertaining to these people. Edwin was born about 1792...no idea about Eliza birth or her maiden name.

Would appreciate any information to help in completing my family tree.

Hi there,
 
I am looking for something definitive on Thomas Courtney Sr.  He is my 5XGreat grandfather in that he is my mother's mother's mother's father's father's mother's father, through his daughter Elizabeth Courtney, who married John Downie (Downey).  If you have a source to share or a document that would be great.  My ultimate goal is any image that I could include in a digital scrapbook that I am making for my son and to cousins, but going back this far means that with the exception of the occasional portrait, bookplate, or landscape photo, I'm pretty much out of luck!
 
Anyhow, this is a new discovery to me, although my grandfather always said that the Downies that came to Canada from Ireland weren't Irish!
 
Anyway, please let me know if you have anything on Thomas Sr. or Jane Anderson.
 
Thanks so much!

PS. Either  way, it would be great to gear from you... wherever you are!

Looking for info on John and Abigail Courtney, maybe born in Scotland maybe around 1780.
 
They had at least 1 daughter, Jane Courtney, about 1803- died in Canada, maybe 1871.
 
She married John Murphy and they had at least 1 daughter, Deborah Murphy, born in Port Hope, Canada. Deborah married George Sallans and they had 3 children, one of which was Elizabeth Jane Sallans, born in Port Hope in 1865. She married John M. Mullen.
 
Do you have any of these people in your tree?
 
Thanx

marriage last and were there any children from it? I cant find them on any census 
except her alone  here in Stevenage in 1901 but states shes married. 
 
My interest is we strongly believe that they are the parents of my Father's Mother
who they left at a pub and was bought up the Publicans family !! 
 
Elsie was very dark haired with brown eyes and almost olive skin, I have seen one 
portrait of LAURA SAMUDAand they certainly look alike.

Cmments: 
My great grandfather, Isaac John Courtney, was born in County Clare,
Ireland c. 1853. He was in the Royal Irish Constabulary 1871-76. After he was dismissed, he came to Tasmania Australia and married Elizabeth Alice Phillips in 1883. I believe his parents were Isaac Courtney and Margaret Ardell, Protestants, married in Kilkee (registration district Kilrush) on 18 September 1846. I would like to know more of both of these, and their forebears.
