I am trying to find the connection to the Carey families in Ireland, possibly County Clare. I believe my GG Grandfather was John Carey, born c1835 Clare. He married Mary or Teresa Leonard, born c1830s Tipperary, and married at Macclesfield, in South Australia, Austalia, in about c1857. I believe they had 7 children, all born in Macclesfield. They were Thomas St Andrew(1858), John James(25/3/1860 my G/grandfather), Michael(1862), Catherine(1864), Patrick(1866), Agnes(1870),and possibly Mary. I am hoping that someone might recognise these descendents and help me make the link from Australia back to Ireland. I look forward to any help anyone can give me. Thanks for taking the time. Regards, Michael Carey
