Trying to establish if a link exists between Catherine Cronin (b 1832), Hannah Cronin (b 1836) and Margaret Mary Cronin (b 1834). All three arrived in Australia in 1850's.

Margaret arrived first in 1850. She travelled alone. She is said to be from Kenmare, but whether that is birthplace, domicile or embarkation point is debatable.

Catherine and Hannah arrived together a few years later.

All three seem to have links with Cashman families from Cork, but it might just be a case of common surnames.

Catherine and Hannah's parents could be David Cronin and Ellen Doody but more concrete evidence is required.

Any clues appreciated ??
