(Mary Eve was Barbara's step-mother.) The narrative claims that Barbara was born 29 July 1833 on the ship, and then notes that this was 10 days (s/b/ 20 days) after the ship arrived in New York. Her death certificate and gravestone both indicate a birth date of 29 Jun 1831 - if she was born 29 Jun 1833 (which matches the 1850 census record), she would have been born on the ship before it arrived in New York.
