Her baptimal record does not give her date of birth. However, as it was normal practice to baptise children a few weeks or even a few days after their birth and as she was baptised on 6 February she was almost certainly born in January. It is assumed that she was born in the house in Penport, Altarnun where her parents lived all their married lives.

Address: Alternun, Cornwall

Her parents and probably her older brother John would have been present but who else is not known.

Cause: inflamation of the breast after childbirth

Address: Penpont

From the cause given on her death certificate it would appear that she had mastitis due to the milk ducts in her breasts becoming blocked which led to a more general infection and her eventual death which was almost certainly painful. How she managed to register her son's death before she died on the same day that she died defies imagination.

Address: Launceston District

Address: Alternun, Cornwall

Her parents and her brother Samuel who was 15 at the time would have been present but who else is not known. Of her surviving siblings John had probably left Alternun, Amelia had moved to Plymouth and had married John Luscombe, and Edwin is not recorded in the 1851 Census for Alternun and his whereabouts at the time of her death is unknown. Her father register her death on the same day that she was buried but whether he did this before or after the burial is not known.
