Mary,

Thank you for searching those records.

At the moment, I am inclined to believe that the John Gill, Protestant who is one the list of Hydrabad convicts was one and the same man as John McGillicuddy, Catholic, in Darlinghurst Goal. I know it sounds like a stretch but the goal records state 4 separate times that he was on board that voyage.

I will keep an open mind and keep searching.

Thank you again,

Kevin McGill(icuddy)
