Irish PIDGEONs of New South Wales, Australia

Michael Pidgeon married Sarah Mahoney in 1835 at Monasterevin, County Kildare, Ireland – see the Pidgeons of County Kildare family tree. Sarah had been married previously to Patrick Keegan, who had died in 1831, and with whom she had at least two children Margaret and John. In 1841, Michael and Sarah emigrated to New South Wales, taking with them their first three children Ann, Mary and Lucy Pidgeon, Sarah’s children Margaret and John Keegan, “a friend’s daughter” Bridget Doolan, and Michael’s sister-in-law Mary Quinn. The family settled initially at Windsor, to the NW of Sydney, and has mostly remained in the greater Sydney area ever since.
