Note: In his Will Jane's brother Thomas refers to 'my late sister Jane Cottire'. It is assumed that there has been a mistranscription somewhere and that Jane married William Cottis.

Note: Jane lied several times about her age. In the 1851 Census she claimed to be 40, in 1861 45, and in 1881 67. It is therefore not surprising that the age declared at her death does not also match her birth date.
