Re: Australian Aboriginal Conlon's
Yes !!!!!
There is hundreds of us in Queensland.
My GG/Gfather is William Henry Conlon b 3 May 1859 in Victoria. Died 17 Sept 1933 Winton Qld.
His fathers name was Joseph Conlan b Ireland 1829 he married Margaret Balmer on 22 December 1851 in Belfast. They arrived in Australia in 1852/53 and settled in Victoria.
William had 6 other Brothers and Sisters: Jane b 1852, Elizabethb 1855, Thomas b 1857, David b 1862, Joseph b 1864 and Alexander b 1867.
William moved to Queensland here he met my G/Gmother a full blood Aboriginal Woman named Jinnie from the Kalali Tribe, Thargomindah. They had 2 Children Rosie b 1883 and Thomas b 1882.
Rosie had 2 marraiges 1: to a man, surname Martin they had 6 children and 2: Peter Henderson.
Thomas is my G/Grandfather, also married a Kalali woman named Annie. They had 5 Children Arthur b 1901, Percy b 1902, William b 1910, Winifred b 1912 and George b 1915. All Tom and Annies children had Aboriginal partners to.
So you can see there is a lot of us out there.
William also married2 other women named Charlotte Wright and Bridget Hackett.
So if there is anyone out there with more info or wish to find out more from me please do not hesitate to reply.
