TRANSCRIBER’S NOTES: The surname appears to have been recorded incorrectly by the scribe in the original record, as there is no exact match for this name on the Minstrel records. There is an ELIZABETH HENNISSEY on board as well as ELIZABETH HINCHCLIFF. This convict and two others admitted to the gaol on the same day are connected with a brace, potentially indicating they committed a crime together and were sentenced together, but that is not a given. Further research required to verify or disprove all of these theories.
