Name Elizabeth Ann Hensley Born 10 Sep 1847 Gender Female Died 11 Mar 1913 Buried St. Dominic, Cornwall, England Notes - Notes on Elizabeth from Robert Bassett:
"She had a kind, sympathetic and generous disposition, well liked by her fellow
villagers. Was a devoted mother, religious. About 5'2" in height, prematurely
grey haired, blue eyes, light complexion. Proud of her tiny, pretty hands and feet.
Favorite saying when rain threatened "I see Kit Hill has its cap on" meaning that
the low cloud had blotted out the sight of an old mine chimney capping a hill near
Callington. Never criticized other people.
She was manager of the household and a good one at that on 16?? a week.
Suffered badly from asthma and bronchitis.
Mother to eight children, four boys and four girls.
Cause of death was pneumonia."
