Jane Cowing (b. 1807/8)

Description

governess to the Moberly children

Biography

She is mentioned in December 1849 and June 1854 as the Moberly's governess, and appears thus in the 1851 census.  She is listed as a visitor rather than governess in 1861 census, but may have been either. Later [1871 census] she seems to have become a sister of mercy in St. Elizabeth's House, Covent Garden.
