I have a copy of the "Southerner" passenger list now that shows Michael and his sister, previously unnamed for me!

For anyone interested she is Catherine Cunningham. Does anyone have any further info on her??? The Bio notes she went with Michael to Mobile AL on board the "Havre" which I have been unsuccessful in locating.

Just thought I'd share with ya'll.

Thanks, is she the younger sister in this family?

Mike

Descendants of B. Cunningham

1 B. Cunningham d: 1830
.. +Margaret Coyle d: 1820
.. 2 Michael Cunningham b: Oct 1814 in Ireland d: Jan 1887 in Daviess Co, IN
...... +Julie Ann "Juliana" Shircliff b: 28 Jul 1826 in Indiana d: 05 Feb 1916 in Daviess Co, IN
.. 2 Younger Sister Cunningham

Yes, Mike,

I found a website that was able to find and send me a copy of the Southerner's passenger list which clearly shows Catherine Cunningham and Michael.

Still unsuccessful locating a passenger list for the "Havre" as mentioned in the bio. At this point Mobile, AL is the last place I have Catherine. Does anyone have further info on her, or, is this the first we all knew her name?

I'm guessing born about 1817 per the bio, no ages on the list. I'm also guessing Margaret Coyle, her mom was b. abt 1795. Also, can't remember how, but I saw something that indicates the B. is Bernard and Michael was born in Athlone, Roscommon, Ireland. Working to find Bernard and/or Margaret.

I said 1817 per the bio, which still may be correct, but the ages WERE listed on the Southerner list dated May 1836 she is noted as 15. So her date of birth may have been closer to 1820/21.
