MICHAEL DELANEY, son of MICHAEL DELANEY and ELIZABETH BRENAN, came
from Kilkenny, Ireland in 1835 as a convict and settled in the Yass area. His master was Henry
O'Brien, who was one of the pioneers of the Yass area, and it was quite possibly on the
property "Douro", owned by Henry O'Brien, that our Michael Delaney worked when he first
came to this country.Michael was a farm labourer in his home country of Ireland and in later
years farmed his own land in the Wargeila area of NSW.
We do not know what eventuated in the marriage after that, but it is evident that Mary Ann formed a relationship with JAMES HENDRY, who was the son of John Hendry and Ellen McGinley, and who was born 26th December, 1844 at Narrawa NSW.
