Mary or Mary Jane as she was known on arrival in New South Wales was one of several Irish orphan girls sent to the colonies. I would like to know more about her and locate information like the orphanage she may have come from, the names of her parents, her parents death certificates etc. She was apparently from Dublin but I don't know which parish, only that she was Catholic. If anyone can help, I would be very grateful,
