Marianne Traveller was born on 23 Jan 1820 in London, and was baptized on 16 Apr 1820 at St. Marylebone Parish Church, St. Marylebone Road, like her brothers and sisters.[1] She must have been hardly more than a baby when her family left England. On 11 Jul 1839 she married Daniel McEwen, a local farmer.[2]
