Trying to find records for Elizabeth Drill born 1810, County Kildare and any possible siblings and her parents.

Elizabeth was transported in 1833 to Australia and her parents may or may not be James & Elizabeth Drill. Her shipping records lists the following

Elizabeth Drill

Alias: - Irish Rebel: - Religion: Protestant Age on arrival: 18

Marital status: Single

Calling/trade: All work

Born: 1815 Native place: Kildare Co

Tried: 1832 Kildare Sentence: 7 Former convictions: 3 months 2 weeks

Ship: Caroline [1833]

Another site lists that there were 8 households containing Drills in 1851 County Kildare.

There is also another Drill who was to be transported who may be Elizabeth Drill's sister

Last name: DRILL First name: MARY Full name: MARY DRILL Sex: F Age: 20 Trial place: Co. Kildare Trial date: 18/10/1839 Crime desc: Larceny Sentence: Transportation 7 yrs Document ref1: TR 3, P 243 Comment1: Convict died in Grangegorman Gaol, Co. Dublin, 17/01/1840

I also found this from another site, so perhaps she came from athy parish - possibly a father?
