Ann was then married to Joseph (33), a watch finisher. The parents’ place of birth is London, and the children at Oxford, London and Berkshire, except the youngest, Emily, who was born at Barnstaple.

*14a	This Diary (Click here) was very kindly supplied by Jacki D Adipietro, a great-granddaughter of John Phare. It is a priceless account, written by a person with first hand knowledge of events almost 100 years ago. While John's mother and three sisters perished, he and his father survived. Jacki is the guardian of a family heirloom: a piece of John's mother's shawl that was used to tie him to the rigging of the ship, which ultimately saved his life. There is also a link at the bottom to the descendants of the surving child.

Their occupations are the same. 1851 census for Honiton, Devon, has a Nathanial Pyne (61yrs), a brickmaker, living with his wife Mary (54). They had four children living with them at that time, including James (14). It is quite possible, therefore, that these are of one family.

*25	No other information known. Vivian, however, is a name often found in North Cornwall, and in the initial newspaper report, her name is between those of William Treleavan and the Wilces, all of whom were from Wadebridge (albeit the list is largely alphabetical!!).
*26	Described as a man of ‘delicate and sickly’ disposition. An anomaly exists in that the newspaper states that the youngest of his six children fell from his mother’ arms into the sea and was lost, yet the details of survivors suggest that she survived and an elder son did not. Information received from Midge Waters: the surname should be WATTERS, not WALTERS. The WATTERS Family The following is the relevant entry from the 1851 census, although I have not made any connection with the preceeding WALTERS family in the passenger list. William WATTERS Head M 36 M Lead Miner Beerferris-DEV Mary WATTERS Wife M 36 F --- Beerferris-DEV Richard WATTERS Son - 11 M Labourer At Lead Mine St Blasey-CON Betsy A.

*27	"Reports state that these individuals were from ‘Amble’, now identified as what is properly called ‘Chapel Hamble’ at St Kew. George was the eldest son and would have been 22 at the time of the wreck. His father, a well established farmer, had died in 1850, leaving his widow with seven children. Jemima, Rachel and Alfred were his younger brothers and sisters and they would have been 18, 15 and 11 in 1855. "
