There were anywhere from 40 to 62 prisoners in the Glenrowan Inn, summoned
there by Ned Kelly
and his gang. At various times people were held at the Inn
and the stationmaster's house, with most eventually
being kept in the Inn. Once
Bracken was taken prisoner, everyone was kept in the Inn. Some were sympathisers
and others were simply
caught up in what was going on. Below is
a smattering of names of some who witnessed
history. (this list includes all
prisoners no matter where they were held. Including some who stayed home!)
