My grandmother Alice McGinty and her sister Mary Ann were born in Clifton NI NZ between 1870 and 1874; have birth cert for Mary Ann (1872)but can't find one for Alice. Mother's name Sarah, father John. Baptism records could help.Any suggestions welcome.
Mothers maiden name was Webb, but married name Larcombe before becoming McGinty. There is a possibility the birth was not registered, but I do not know where to look for baptismal records - probably some Church of England church near Clifton.

Looking for Mary Heenan (or Heneghan) born 1848/9 Australia
I am looking for Mary Heenan, the daughter of John Heenan (or Heneghan) and Margaret Kelly, she was possibly born in Australia 1848/9. She was the eldest daughter - I have been able to trace all the rest of her brothers and sister - but can find no trace of Mary.
I am also trying to find when the came to NZ - they settled on the West Coast of NZ. If there are any other Heenan family researchers out there I would love to hear from you. One of their children (Martin) was registered under the name Heneghan so Mary could be registered under either name.
Trying to establish how John and Margaret Heenan got to Australia probably with 2 children about 1862 then on what ship they came to NZ on between 1863 and 1866 with 4 children. Not sure if they came to Australia ex Ireland or UK or whether they were in
America. Any information on their travels or anything at all gratefully received
