     Jane Dawe was born on 26 Apr 1833 at Newton Mill, Tavistock, DEV, ENG.1 She was christened in the Ang Ch, Tavistock, DEV, ENG.1
     Jane Dawe was assumed to have died aft. 1847 ?Lumburn, Dist of Tavistock, DEV, ENG, as she is mentioned in the will her father wrote in Nov 1847.2
     Given Jane was still alive in 1847 she must be findable. Attempts so far have not proved successful. A 1848 marriage to William Masters looked promising, but that Jane was the dtr of a Joseph and seems to have come from Stoke Climsland. Subsequent likely matches in 1851 have all proved to be different Jane's - ELliott, Cock, Nicholls were all married to Jane someone other than Dawe even if the Jane was born Lamerton or Tavistock in the right timeframe. There are a few more to check through yet.3,4
     Jane Daw appeared on the census of 7 Jun 1841 at Newton Mill, Tavistock, DEV, ENG, in the household of Isaac Daw and Betsy Daw shown as Jane Daw.5
     Isaac, David, Mary, Bettsey, Thirza, Honor and Jane were beneficiaries in the 10 Nov 1847 will of their father Isaac Smith Dawe at Lumburn, Dist of Tavistock, DEV, ENG.2
