Does anybody have a copy of any poems written by this woman?  I have been told by descendants of hers that she was a poet and I am in the process of putting together a book of almost 100 poems written by descendants of her brother Joseph.  It would be nice to say this natural trait comes from this line although Joseph wasn't a poet that I know of.  One of my poems is on this site and called "The Ex-Convict - Councillor" and is about Edward Killalea.
