Greetings: my Winifred was born 1834/35 - she was 14 when she was sent to Australia on
the Earl Grey scheme in 1850. I've tried hard to find her before the Workhouse, or
even to confirm which workhouse, but in / near Dublin. Her parents are given as Mary and
William Callaghan, on the emigrant ship record, which is probably true . . . so we may be
distantly related, but um . . . Irish records are very hard to deal with. When you get
really stuck, get a small amount of paid research done. - migs
