    Thank you! I’d love you to do more regarding Irish convicts, it seems that their stories have been ignored by most

      I will definitely be doing a story about that now that you have mentioned it, I love hearing from people like you because it helps me with ideas and it is important for me to make videos that people like, I am working on a couple of new ones and once I get them done I will do one solely about the convicts, thank you so much for your comment.

      My grandmother was in a coloured orphanage in Western Australia, we still don’t know all the facts of who she was and what she was? She had blonde hair as a child, but black eyes and all her children were very tanned skinned? Who knows? I’d love to learn the truth one day x 😢❤

      Because only a small percentage of the convicts were Irish

    My great great grandfather was an Irish convict called Patrick McCarthy. He had been a soldier, but was involved in a mutiny at Gibralter. He was transported to Tasmania where he became a farmer at a place called Hollow Tree where he and his wife, Eleanor (nee Walsh) - also an Irish convict - tried to raise their family in peace. Patrick was murdered by aborigines one summer's evening as he and his wife and small child walked back to their home. Patrick told Eleanor to run for it while he held the attackers off but he was sadly outnumbered as well as being unarmed. Eleanor (also known as Mary) was left with four small children to raise on her own.

      @Orthodox Naga no. Cause Jews at least get to be stereo typed as wealthy or get the pity card.
      Irish just don't even get acknowledged

    Very good and accurate research. I live in a post mid 1880s Irish settlement area,
    First nation people here are proud of the Irish ancestry due to a lot of intermarriage between the free/pardoned settlers and the indigenous.. 👣🗝🙏🏽

      ​You hit on so many very important and forgotten events that took place, including the 4000 Irish orphans​@@IrishHistorybyFreyaGunhild
      Around 6 minutes 45, what you are talking about is classed as, the Stolen Generation. Children and infants taken from the first nation people here and many stolen children from Ireland sent here as well. The Catholic Church apologised to the indigenous people here but not sure whether they extended their sorrow towards other countries (with an apology.)
      It's made it difficult for some people to trace their ancestry..
      You are correct about the English, Irish and Indigenous Rangers who did policing at the time. Aboriginals were the best trackers and were made to track their own people. It was a time of, "do as you are told, or get shot yourself!"
      Eureka Stockade Patrick Sheedy is a really good story to google about a convict. He escaped into free settler after the gold rush and headed to a newly made town of killarney, victoria. He became a landowner and named his property at sheedys lane 'birdhill,' after the property his parents owned in Tipperary Ireland. One of his son's Martin, married a local indigenous girl whom they nicknamed Mammy.. Mammy Sheedy

      Do you know what your ancestors Christian name, date of birth and who he married? Parents' names? I can see if I can find something at this end of the world for you..
      Find a Grave website is a good Avenue to look for ancestors. Obituaries and there are also old newspaper archives uploaded to the web. It's called trove

    much respect from a yamatji,my grandmother dad was an Irish man,I don’t know him only my grandmother knew him but she was taken and put to slavery on the cattle station,never seen her dad or mother ever again,from the cattle station she was sent to the re education camps,they forced her to disown her ancient culture and peoples if she wanted to live in town,she resisted but they just got more worse until she broke,in the 80s I asked her to teach me our tribe language but she said it’s gone now we must live like the wite man it’s the future we must adapt to,I was deeply confused,I think they really messed her up in that camp
