Bridget Mary Carmody

I have learned through DNA testing that I am related to Bridget Mary Carmody (b. 1834) from Ennis.  I believe she left the Ennis Workhouse for Sydney, Australia as part of the Orphan Girls Scheme in 1850.  Her parents were Thomas and Bridget, who were both listed as dead at the time.  I would be grateful for any information anyone might have on this young woman and her family.  Our direct Carmody links are with Co Limerick (Kilfinny) and I have always wondered if the Carmody's in Clare are connected.  This result leads me to believe there must be some connection. 

Thanks,

Mary Ross
