Jane BOYDE was born about 1798 in Cootehall, Co. Roscommon. She died 7 Dec 1879 in Cootehall, Co. Roscommon. Jane married William O'HARA about 1820.
Jane's family probably descended from Scottish settlers.
Jane and William may have had another son, named Michael, as the New South Wales Assited Immigrant Passenger Lists show that a Michael O'Hara, aged 28 and from Cootehall, Co. Roscommon arrived aboard the Hornet in New South Wales, Australia on 25 January 1865. Michael was therefore born about 1836 which fits in with the births of the children of Jane and William. Or perhaps Michael was a son of William's brother Roger and his wife Maria Murray who also had children around the same time that Michael was born.
