BIOGRAPHY: My grandmother, Emma Jane (Brown) Stevens, was sent away from home, to seek employment at 13 yrs. She was so homesick, but was told she would be taking the food from the younger ones mouths, and must go back
I have my maternal grandparent soriginal marriage record, and I now believe I have an answer to why they ended up in Essex. One of the witnesses was a Joseph Outten. I located him on my tree, and found he was married to a Rosina "Rose" Cannon. She was a much younger sister to my maternal GRT Grd. Mother, Harriet (Richards /Cannon) Brown. And they lived in Prittlewell, Essex. My grandparents were married in the Parish Church of Southchurch on May 18, 1907. When my Mom was of age to seek work following high school graduation in Detroit, her birth record had disappeared. She found out why as soon as she obtained a copy herself. She was born the following November 23, 1907.

My mother, Emma Stevens, and her sister Emily Goldsmith were from a close-knit family of 14 siblings who eventually emigrated to Detroit, Mich. By 1911 Harriet and Harry Brown, my grandparents, were already living in Detroit. By 1912 my mother and Aunt Emily were the last of the "Brown" family living in England. When Emma and Emily first heard about the "unsinkable" Titanic their decision was made. Neither my father, Phillip Stevens, nor Emily's husband, Frank Goldsmith Sr., could swim and were deathly afraid of the ocean. Both families bought passage on the Titanic. My parents were understandably upset when by August it was confirmed that an addition to the Stevens family would arrive in April of 1912. There was no problem getting a refund on their passage. There was a waiting list for any cancellations.
My sister, Iris, was the happy event that kept my family from that fateful voyage. I was born in 1927. Would I be here today if it wasn't for Iris?!
Ironically my father spent World War II in the British Navy and never did learn to swim. It wasn't until 1921 that my parents Phillip and Emma, and my sisters Dora and Iris found their way to Detroit via another White Star Line ship, the Saxonia. Dora was 13 and Iris celebrated her ninth birthday aboard the Saxonia with a special dinner and birthday cake.

1841census: the 1841 census is the earliest census that took names, ages and a couple of other details. Adult ages were rounded up or down to the nearest 0 or 5, there is no indication of relationship, and only an affirmation of whether or not they born in the county of residence. I have assumed for the moment that all of those with a Jarrett surname living in George Jarrett's household were his and Martha's children and not nephews, grandchildren etc. This is a reasonable assumption becasue of the ages or thought may be disproved at a later date.
