Elizabeth entered a de facto relationship with Joseph Quinn (NSW Corps Private, Earl Cornwallis, 1801), around 1806. They would have met on the ship, so the liaison may have commenced at that time. The couple had three children: Patrick 1808, Elizabeth 1810 and John 1814.
On the 20th August 1797 Elizabeth went into the shop of James Farish in Macclesfield, along with Nancy Booth, also known as Elizabeth Jones. Together they managed to steal sixteen yards of printed cotton, valued at one pound ten shillings. Date Tried: September 1797, Chester Assizes Sentence: Death, later commuted to transportation for 7 years. She was transported on the ship Earl Cornwallis which arrived in NSW 12 Jun 1801.
