In 1851 Mary Davey (age 15, House Maid) lived at Boscaswell Row in St Just with her father William (47, Miner), mother Honour (49), and four siblings: William (22, Miner), Michael (8, Scholar), Noal (3, Scholar), and Peggy (5, Scholar).[3]

Mary Davey of Pendeen (age 24, Spinster, daughter of William Davey, Miner) married Andrew Eddy of Pendeen (age 20, Bachelor, Miner, son of Andrew Eddy, Miner) on 29 Jan 1860 at St John's Church in the Parish of Pendeen.[4] The marriage was registered in Penzance in the first quarter of the year.[5]
