    Notes:

    Jan Wood records 
    I found that Mary Ann had a younger sister named Lydia Smerdon Harris, born in Totnes in Feb
    1821, and baptised in 1823 together with the next baby born in the Harris family.   She would
    have been named after her mother's sister Lydia Smerdon, who married a miller named William
    Pope and spent her life in Ashburton
    
    Lydia POPE nee SMERDON was therefore left a widow at the age of 32, but she never remarried.
       After her husband died, she and her son leased out Belford Mill, as a woollen mill and factory,
    first to woollen cloth manufacturer Richard CARLILE, then to Thomas COUSINS, and after
    that it was leased to Richard CAUNTER.
    
    1851
    Lydia POPE was aged 54, and was living back at Belford Mills with her son William Henry POPE,
    aged 25 and working as a miller, with the assistance of a live-in male servant.   Nearby in
    Belford Cottage lived her son John POPE with his wife, who was a descendant of the SMERDONS
    of Elliots Hill, Buckland in the Moor, and their two young sons.   The marriage between John
    POPE and his wife Susannah Murch nee SMERDON  linked together the SMERDONS of Ashburton and
    the SMERDONS of Buckland in the Moor, and so their descendants could claim descent from the
    two separate SMERDON family lines.
    
    She was buried in Ashburton churchyard  in the graveplot next to her husband William, and his
    parents and brother.

    left £130 to his daughter Mrs Sarah BECK and also land in trust for her  -  a field or close
    of land near Gulwell Bridge in Staverton, to be held by [her first cousin] Thomas HEXT the
    Younger of Ashburton, yeoman, and his heirs, in trust for his daughter Sarah for her life and
    after her death in trust for her heirs.  All the residue of his estate was left to his son
    John Cockey SMERDON.  Unfortunately, John Cockey SMERDON died himself, less than three years
    later.   Inland Revenue Wills Series, 1812-1857 [Devon Record Office, Exeter]
