JOHN1 MEAGHER or Maher is the earliest know ancestor. He was born
about 1723 in Clonmel, Tipperary County, Ireland. The family
were well-to- do Irish Catholic merchants. John’s son Michael Patrick Meagher
inherited his father’s business and married Emily Power in 1872. This
marriage brought into the family the property known as Suir View. About
1900 Michael’s son Albert Patrick Meagher migrated to Australia to join his
older half-cousin William Hayes who was making a good living as a
bookmaker in Melbourne. Albert married Elizabeth Josephine Kay in 1906.
They moved to Sydney where they had four children.
