Stan O'Loughlin is author of "Anchor Under the Southern Cross" which details the history and descendants of Cornelius and Ann O'Loughlin, immigrants from Clare, Ireland, who arrived in Australia in 1842 and 1850 respectively. Cornelius, from near Ennistymon arrived on the ship "Thetis" and Ann (Barry), from Kilkee arrived with her parents and other members of her family aboard the "Ascendant". They married in 1853 and were South Australian pioneer farmers.
And so the O'Loughlin Anchor of Cornelius and Ann is now firmly planted beneath the Southern Cross.
