the Cornwall records Office has information on Bodmin Gaol. The one thing that is missing though is the visitor book for 1844. Hope that this helps :)

Bodmin Gaol is now a tourist attraction so they may be able to have a look through their collections if you contact them and possibly show you her cell.
