My ancestor, Catherine Noon, came out on the same voyage and she was from Croghan too. As she is listed as an orphan and these were the famine years, I have assumed that she was in the Boyle Workhouse. She paid for her brother, martin, to come out in 1857.
If you are interested, I have set up a family history website where I have tried to piece things together: http://www.thenoones.id.au/index.html
After the ship's arrival, the captain had a scandalous 'liaison' with one of the girls off the ship! You can read about it on the website.
