This orphan has been claimed by: Susan Roberts

Selina Rebecca Sullivan was the daughter of Thomas Sullivan (convict ship :Gilbert Henderson and Ann Carton (convict ship; Earl Grey). Ann Carton has numerous spellings for her surname including Carten/ Caston/Karten/ Carden/ and have noticed the name is spelt 'Cotter' on the application completed by Reverend Hall as Ann could not write. Her 4 children born before 1859 were admitted in 1859 including Sarah, William "Willie", Alice and Selina. I have placed information about this family on Ancestry.com
