What was she doing at sea? any idea of where exactly or what vessel? does the birth cert give any more info. if anyone has a copy?

Any info. gratefully received

Hi, just in case anyone is interested, I have just read a book called 'Proof Of Existence' by Brenda Davies. It refers to Mary Jane Ivey which I'm sure is Mary Jane Carnarton before she married. The book is a lovey read for anyone related to the Ivey family. It is full of interesting info. about living in cornwall in the late 1800's. full of cornish history.http://www.rootschat.com/forum/Smileys/classic/smiley.gif

Thanks for that recommendation Perrow! I read the first few pages on the Amazon preview, and already I'm hooked!  :)

Hi Cousin Julia,  :D

I have just spent many hours rereading this thread! It was and still is quite fascinating. I wish some of the other rootschatters would come back as they are direct descendants of William Ivey = Mary Jane Carnarton. If we are excited about the book I'm sure they would be ecstatic!!!

I wonder if there are newspaper articles re: the Carnartons. I know I had fun finding items about 'Cockney George Slack/Smith'.
