Is there anyone who may know of s stray Patrick Hackett probably born around 1800-1810 in Ireland. He did not emigrate North America but rather joined the British Army and was sent to Tasmania. His army record suggests that he was born in Kilonale Tipperary but I can find no trace of a town of that name. It could be a misspelling for Killenaule. Some information about his later history is found at http://freepages.history.rootsweb.ancestry.com/~garter1/hackettpat.htm. (Please do not use the email address at this link it has been changed)

However, we are having a real problem getting back before Tasmania. Any assistance wwould be appreciated. Thanks
