Thomas married Jeremiah Quinane's eldest daughter Mary Margaret Quinane at St Mary's Church in Burramine on 23/2/1905. (This union is very significant - While we know these families must be related because they came from the same village in Ireland,  to date we have not found the Irish records which link these two families. This marriage effectively links the families in Australia!).  Thomas died in Barooga on 14th October 1939 and Mary Margaret died in Barooga on 17 November 1937. Thomas and Mary had three children:

Catherine Ellen - born 1907 at Pyramid Hill, married Frederick Bellis in 1937 and had four childrren, Thomas, Gerald, Adrian and Mary.
