GENERAL NOTE:
We have not been able to find Maria in the 1881 census or in the death records between 1870 and 1881. Her mother had died in 1879 and her father early in 1881, so one possibility is that she had been adopted under a different name. She does not seem to have been taken in by her brother William and his wife who were also living in Poplar. There is always the possibility that her early death was not recorded.

GENERAL NOTE:
BEWARE and CHECK again: Martha ROUNSVALE, "my eldest daughter" is mentioned in the will of John MORCOME of Bodmyn CON made in 1643 (his wife was Elizabeth) and he also mentions his son Philip, and Elizabeth KEEN, "my sister" of Michaelstone. Even with help from staff at the Cornwall Record Office, this will was not read with any certainty,, but it appears that his sister Elizabeth KEEN may have had children named Heugh, Elizabeth, Philip (who is said to be a daughter so may be Philippa), and a Grace KEEN who is referred to as "my god-daughter". He also refers to John ROUNSFALE or ROUNSWHALE, no relationship given [possible son-in-law or grandson?]
