Mary Ann Doran was sent to Adelaide, South Australia in 1849 on the Ship "Inconstant" possibly with her sister Biddy on the Earl Grey Scheme as an Irish Orphan girl.
Mary Ann Doran married Joseph Sullivan in Adelaide, March 1850 and then moved to Victoria some time between 1852-53.
Joseph was an ex convict who did 7 years in Tasmania. Joseph was convicted in England in 1842 and changed his name from Joseph Wickers to Joseph Sullivan when he left Tasmaina. Joseph and Mary had 9 children together. Mary died in 1902 in North Melbourne and is buried in the Melbourne General Cemetery with one of her daughters. It is unknown what happened to Joseph.
I am unable to find any information on Biddy Doran other than she was on the same ship as Mary Ann.
On Mary Ann's death certificate it shows that she was born in County Cork around 1836, on all her children's birth certificates she came from Mullingar, West Meath, Ireland.
I hope someone might be able to help me find
