Personal Notes:
It seems that Michael may have married first to a lady whose name is not known – they had two children, Ann and Michael. Then in 1840 he married Rebecca and they had 13 children. It is not known if Michael Noonan ever came to Wagga Wagga, but Rebecca is mentioned in the 1884 Rate Records and also in the Daily Advertiser 13 May 1884 and July 1884. She lived in Fitzmaurice Street and died between these two dates.

- Notes: I have just received the birth certificate of Catherine Noonan born 1863. The reason I requested the certificate because I wondered the age between Ann and Catherine.
To my surprise Michael Noonan the father did not mention his two children Ann and Michael, thus they were not the children of Rebecca Ready and her age was only 39 years at the time of Catherine’s birth.
