About Jane Harris

!BIRTH: Gwithian, Cornwall, Parish Register, LDS film #1595600. Listed with

a number of stray births on one of the pages of the marriages. Also

listed with the births under the date of 8 May 1664. The name here

is hard to read and looks like it could say Anne. The Gwithian baptisms

for the 1640s-1660s are out of order, with many apparently added later.

The entry added in with the marriages definately says Jane, not Anne.

Since John Harry later had a daughter Ann, but no Anne is found in the

burials prior to the later child, then Jane must be correct.

!MARRIAGE: Ibid.

!DEATH: Towednack, Cornwall, Parish Register Transcripts, 1676-1813,

baptisms and burials only, LDS film #254222. There are two burials for

Jane Curnow, widow, one on 2 Oct 1745 and one on 3 Jan 1747/8. One of

these would be the widow of Peter and one would be the widow of his

brother David, but it is unknown which is which.
