Convict Notes

Hannah was able to read and write. Her religion was Kirk. Kirk: The word "Kirk" is the Scots term for "church," and it specifically indicates that the convict identified with or belonged to the Presbyterian faith, which was the predominant form of Protestantism in Scotland. So, if a convict's religion is listed as "Kirk," it means they were likely Presbyterian or affiliated with the Church of Scotland.
