In 1861, Mary Bate (30) of Camborne, dressmaker, was living in Cross St., Camborne. Her sisters Elizabeth and Julia were with her.

Probably the same Mary Bate who died during the 2nd Quarter of 1901 in the Redruth district (of which Camborne is part), her age given as 68 which, not surprisingly, is incorrect.
