| Additional Information | FamilySearch Life Sketch: "From the 1861 Census we can see that after her mother died in 1859 Mary Jane is sent as a baby/toddler to live with her aunt Esther Belcher (nee Smith) and uncle Joseph Belcher in Little Wittenham, near Dorchester (On Thames), Oxfordshire.
May Jane would have known Wittenham Clumps, with trees set high up on a hill. It is now in a nature reserve which can be visited free of charge. Walking distance away are car parking, cafes and hotels in nearby Dorchester (Oxfordshire) which has it's own Abbey. Dorchester Abbey is usually open and there is museum (not often open, so please check timings).
Her Aunt and Uncle say that Mary Jane was born within St. Mary's Parish in Reading. St. Mary's is actually St. Mary the Virgin an impressive chequered building with an active congregation. It is of Anglican, Protestant faith and is the Minster church for Reading. Meaning that it was originally buit in Anglo Saxon times (in this case the 7th Century) when originally a community of clergy lived there.
Her uncle, Joseph Belcher may have died in 1873 as the English GRO Index has a death registered for that date in Wallingford, which is the registration district for Little Wittenham Berkshire/Oxfordshire in England. Did a long term illness of her uncle Joseph Belcher cause her immigration to the United States in 1870?"
