Susan Nicholas Davey (b. 11 Aug 1834, Cornwall, England)

Susan is one of my researching mysteries that I have been actively working on.  As you can see, I have a date for her birth but no date for her death.  Susan was born 11 Aug 1834 and baptized at St. Agnes parish in Cornwall, England on 2 Nov 1834 (1).  Familysearch.org has placed the Cornwall Parish Registers 1538-1900 online and although there are no indexes, I was able to find the baptism record because I knew her birthdate from a photocopy of the Davey Family Bible.  The family was living at Mount Hawke.
