Hello Mairead,
Sorry that it has taken 9 years to get back to you, but I sort of lost interest in the Freeburn clan when nothing seemed to be available to research.
My Thomas Freeburn was a convict sent to Australia from Donegal for stealing a sheep at the age of 14. He ended up having a much better life here in Australia than he would have had in Ireland.
Australian line pretty well documented and if you like I will send you what I have on our line down here.
Email me on robert.freeburn@bigpond.com
Regards....Bob Freeburn.
