This is 'my' Louisa Gray. She somehow managed to get to Auckland New Zealand and married Malcolm Frederick Ramsay of Great Shelford in 1865. Louisa & Malcolm are my great, grandparents.  I wonder why she was in the orphan school for such a short time. 

I'm happy to share what I know of her mother & father convict records and subsequent family history.
