Hannah is the daughter of Andrew Byrne (1774 - 1863) and his 2nd wife Maria Davis Best (1799 - 1872). Andrew, born in the Seven Churches area near Glendalough in Wicklow, was transported for life to NSW for his and family involvement in the 1798 Irish Rebellion arriving Sydney Cove on 11/01/1800 aboard the "Minerva". Maria came free as the daughter of convict Mary Best from Middlesex, England, sentenced to death for counterfeiting, commuted to life sentence, arriving Sydney in 1812.

William Byrne (1808 - 1906) - (no relation) -, the husband of Hannah, was born in Parramatta , the son of convicts Patrick Byrne (1775 - 1808) and Sarah Best (~1774 - 1852) - again not related - from Co. Carlow, Ireland and Bedfordshire, England respectively, both arriving Sydney in 1798 with a 7 year sentence. When Patrick's sentence was completed, he joined the NSW "Rum Corps", and was involved in the deposition of Governor William Bligh in 1808.
