Hi, I'm researching Patrick Kelly who married Elizabeth Malone (where married no idea) Patrick was born about 1803 Limerick, Ireland. Elizabeth was born about 1808 (place unknown) . They had 3 children born (unknown) William, Joseph and Anne.
Patrick joined the 40th regiment in 1824 . He served in NSW, East Indies, Kabul. He was discharged in 1845 .
Patrick his wife and 3 children came to N.Z. on board the ship "Ramillies" to Auckland, New Zealand in 1847. They had another child born 1849 in Onehunga, Auckland, N.Z. Patrick Thomas Kelly.
I'm not sure if Patrick travelled with his wife and children or he wasn't married at the time or wife and children stayed in Ireland or where ever.
Patrick started off his Army as a Private and was eventually a Sargeant in his Regiment. I only have his War Record which states most of this information.
I am trying to find relatives in Ireland . Also if he had any brothers or sisters, his parents , actually anything at all which is concrete evidence its his connection.
Hope someone can help, Thanks
Zelda Kelly
