Notes
General:

Notes from David Stevens' family tree file:

Griffith's Valuation shows a James WHELAN was the occupier of land (plot 12) in Ballyhasty (1 acre 3 rood 24 perches) leased by Francis GAYNOR; also occupier and lessor of land (plot 9) in Cloghjordan Park (18 acres 2 roods 31 perches); also occupier of land (plots 5A and B) in Cloghjordan Townfields (13 acres 2 roods 27 perches) leased by Lord DUNALLEY. This probably refers to his uncle James WHELAN.

Arrived at Port Jackson, New South Wales, Australia as an assisted immigrant 15 December 1851 on the "St Vincent" described as an agricultural labourer age 26 from Cloughjordan, County Tipperary. In 1856 and1859 Victoria Electoral Roll was recorded as a goldminer Long Gully, Bendigo, Australia (held miner's rights in Long Gully division). Returned to Ireland , via Suez Canal 1863.

Returned to England on the "Result" arriving London November 1863 (James age 29, Julia age 23, Catherine age 3, Mary age 4, Thos age 1) recorded as PHALAN.

Shown as James PHELAN living Ballyhasty, Cloughjordan when birth of daughter Julia registered in 1864. Sponsor of Mary PHELAN (daughter of Dan and Jane) Cloughjordan 17 April 1864.

Arrived in NZ 17 December 1864 on the Nimroud from London, England (departed The Downs, Kent 12 August 1864) accompanied by Julia (wife), Mary, Catherine, Thomas, and Julia.

Newton electoral roll 1874-5 No 850 Freehold Commercial Street, lot 2. Freeholder 1884; labourer Auckland, County land Eden £650.

In New Zealand known as PHELAN

Extract from White Wings - Sir Henry Brett
The Nimroud left the Downs on August 12, 1864, and arrived in Auckland Harbour on December 17, having been 126 days on the passage. When running down her easting she encountered terrific gales. On October 30 and 31 she was hove-to under close- reefed topsails, and during this time she was struck by a heavy sea that filled the decks and shifted the cargo. On the 29th of the same month many large icebergs were passed. On November 1 a tremendous sea swept over the ship, flooding the decks and doing much damage on deck.

Obtained land in Auckland (Arch Hill) and Great Barrier Island. In the "Tales from Great Barrier Island" by Helen Jordan Luff on page 10 'The Auckland Provincial Council offered each immigrant a farm of forty acres if they had paid passage to New Zealand themselves. A married couple would be eligible for eighty acres of free land. However this land could be quite unsuitable for farming as many people discovered.

Died at Arch Hill, Auckland. Death registration shows had been living in New Zealand for 21 years and 5 children (2 males age 23 and 19, and 3 females age 27, 26 and 21) living.

Extract from the Auckland Star 17 November 1885 - Deaths;
