According to CON41-1-11P166, Elizabeth married David Jones on 7 Jan 1852, so it would seem unlikely that this is the same Elizabeth Williams that married George Hadler in Sydney, also in 1852. From the Female Convicts VDL Database, it seems she may not have been free to leave Van Diemen's Land until 5 May 1856. The VDL Database also have no mention of her having the middle name May.

Convicted with George Williams both aged 22. Not sure this is the correct birth date - the Elizabeth Williams born 22/11/1825 did not have a sibling or husband named George of the same age.
