Rosannah Lindsay was from Cleenish, Fermanagh. She married John Bell from Irvinestown and they came to Australia on "The Helen" in 1841, age 24. Their first child (a son) was born on the voyage and they had three more sons in Australia.
According to the shipping records, Rosannah's parents were William Lindsay and Eliza Bohannan.
DNA connections with the descendants of Wiliam Lindsay born around 1830 suggest that he was a brother of Rosannah Lindsay.
