Mary Harvey: An Overview
The information I have about Mary Harvey comes from the following sources:
1. The diary of her great
grandaughter Elizabeth Jones
(nee Helsham) who makes reference to her but gives no information
about her (written in the mid 1800s).
2. Various notes written by his great great grandson Col
Henry Helsham Helsham-Jones.
3. The book titled "Stoke Ferry" by Doris E Coates, 1980,
page 61. This mentions the Harveys and the Helshams living near
the church.
4. Her memorial inside All Saint's
Church, Stoke Ferry.
5. Her cook book.
In each case these notes make reference to her existence but tell us no more. For an overview please see Mary's husband's page.
