A POST ON ROOTSWEB RE HORSEMAN/MOLLOY. (MY COMMENTS ARE IN BRACKETS.)
Hi One & All

I am researching the family of Richard HORSEMAN born c.1807 Co. Galway IRE, the son of Richard & Sarah HORSEMAN (nee GRAHAM). Richard his wife Ellen (nee COATES) and their children Richard, Henry, Jane and Sarah arrived in Victoria in 1860 aboard the Sarah M. They settled in the Yandoit area on land belonging to Richard's nephew Richard MOLLOY.
Of Richard & Ellen's children, very little is presently known of their sons - Richard born c.1843 is a complete mystery, and Henry born c.1849 married Mary Jane FAULL in 1878 possibly settling in NSW. Their daughters, Jane born c.1850 and Sarah born c.1853, married possibly in a double ceremony in Franklinford on 14 Apr 1868 Michael CARTY and John CARTY respectively. Michael born c.1838 and John born c.1844 were the sons of Michael & Catherine CARTY (nee LYONS) and were also possibly from Co. Galway, IRE. Both Jane & Michael and Sarah & John settled in the Shepherd's Flat and Yandoit area. (Mr R.Carty was leasing much of Richard Molloy's land in 1907. See chronology 21-9-1907. I wonder if his name was Richard!)

Richard died in Yandoit in 1869 and Ellen died in 1878 - both are buried in the Franklinford Cemetery in an unmarked grave. (Richard Horseman committed suicide. See chronology 28-6-1869.)

Richard's nephews Richard and Patrick MOLLOY, sons of Patrick & Eliza MOLLOY (nee HORSEMAN) arrived in Melbourne in 1854 aboard the Fullwood. Richard MOLLOY born c.1816 married Mary CANTWELL, daughter of Philip & Mary CANTWELL (nee EGAN), in Ballan in 1864 and the family settled in the Yandoit and Franklinford area. Patrick born c.1828 married Bridget COEN, daughter of Thomas & Julia COEN (nee LYONS), in Franklinford in1860 and they too settled in the Yandoit and Franklinford area.

Children of Richard & Mary MOLLOY (nee CANTWELL) were:
- Elizabeth Margaret married James Bernard BARRETT in 1880 in Franklinford
- Mary Dorothea married William O'CONNELL
- Sarah Jane married James COLLINS in 1894
- Theresa Bridget married George Frederick DUNKLEY in 1897
- Catherine never married, she became a Loretto Nun
- Lucy Agnes never married

Richard & Mary are buried in the Eganstown R.C. Cemetery.

Children of Patrick & Bridget MOLLOY (nee COEN) were:
- Mary Ann married Edward O'NEILL in 1881
- Charles died as an infant
- Elizabeth Julia married Michael HALLINAN in 1889
- Mary Jane married Francis Walter MURPHY in 1888 in Yandoit
- Margaret Agnes married Albert James ROSS
- Patrick Joseph married Sarah BENNETT in 1908
- Catherine Winifred married Arthur Patrick McIVER
- Richard Joseph married Matilda Seraphina VOSTI in 1898
- Theresa Bridget died as an infant

Patrick & Bridget are buried in the Sandon R.C. Cemetery. (Bridget died in 1928. See chronology.)

Was Ellen Horseman RONALD DALE BARASSI'S grandmother or the great grandmother of the beautiful Gayle Barassi of Castlemaine in the 1960's?
There was a BRIDGET Molloy who was married to JOHN Molloy of "LIMESTONE", Guildford, the property name exactly the same as that of Richard Molloy's property at Yandoit!
