Mary Anne working as a cook in the household of Robert Bourchier WRET Esq, he was the
second son of Sir Bourchier (New College, Oxford, 1774), 7th Bart., of Tawstock,
Devon (by his 1st wife, Anne, dau. of Sir Robert Palk, Bart., of Haldon, Devon). B. 1790.]

With the number of staff at the house one would expect Robert to be of substantial means
However when Robert dies in 1872 his probate shows him as having effects of under £4000
which does not seem that substantial
