I've found some prison records after the conviction in Dublin.   They say she is 17, Johanna is 24 and Catherine is 44.   Catherine is married.   It's the first time any of them have been in prison.


There's also a physical description.   Bridget is pale, has black hair and is 4 foot 11 inches.

How interesting. I have the details of Bridget on her indent sheets. Very precise eyebrow colour , scars, height,freckles. In the other newspaper articles a man stole a cow and got 6 months whereas Bridget & co got 7 years transportation for receiving geese.  It seems the justice system hasn't really changed.
