Dear all,
I am looking for my ancester. He was John Hennessy, born nearly 1811, married to Elizabeth Sloane. They came from Ireland.
I think he was a marine deserter whaler ?
Who could help me with this kind of informations ?
He fleed to new caledonia nearly 1860 may be because of his desertion. But desertion of what ? Marine ? Army ? ... ? I don't know. Any idea ?
Several more details : he was also carpenter, santal trader. 3 childrens ; mary jane born in 1847 in Valparaiso, Chile. John Benjamin born nearly 1855 in Callaz (?), Peru. William born in 1857, Sydney, Australia
His name could be written Hensey, Hennessey,...
