Nicholas' Calling/Trade is noted as 'Servant farm butcher'. It is also noted that he was married with 5 children. Nicholas & Ellen ? had 2 children for whom I can find birth records for Mary Lawless born 1843 and John Joseph &/or John Walter Lawless born 1848. Nicholas died 6 August 1859 and was buried 8 August 1859, however his Funeral Notice (published in the SMH 8 August 1859) does not advise which cemetery.
