Who is Jane Haining?

' Mary's heart was already with god and conventional values were not going to keep her a way from the life he had chosen for her.' (Mary MacKillop A tribute, 1995)

In the early stages of Jane's life she was a very autonomous girl. She grew up in a hostile environment in the home of Mrs. Reed and her three children, John, Eliza, and Georgiana that is known as Gateshead. The Reed family showed no love or any sort of affection towards Jane in any way, shape, or form; for they all despised her. She spent most of her time out of contact of others. The most contact she had with someone was a

Jane Long was born on July 23, 1798. The tenth child in her family. She spent most of her childhood on her parents plantation in Charles County and was the tenth child in her family household. Jane had to learn how to grow up without a father. He died a little bit before she was about to turn 1 years old in 1799. At age 14 Jane had sadly become an orphan after her mother had passed away. She had grew up with her older sister, Barbara who was married to Alexander Calvit and lived in a plantation in Washington, Mississippi. Jane grew up there until she met James Long. Soon after he returned from the battle of New Orleans the couple gotten married on May 14, 1815 and had two kids of their own.

Elizabeth Jane Cochrane evolved journalism to a whole different level. Her daring spirit and love for writing led her to many outstanding articles, using her experiences to back up her adventures. Young and independent, she began her writing career at the age of only eighteen.

The best gift that anyone can ask for in life is, to have a good and spiritual mother, and Catherine was blessed with this gift. From childhood, Catherine was very spiritual and followed the Bible and set Jesus Christ’s teachings for her guidance in life. Catherine had an exceptional relationship with her mother in every stage of her life and she had a major contribution to Catherine’s

Many people in today’s world believe there is a higher power and practice a religion. Some exhibit true religious behaviors of peace and kindness, whereas other individuals hurt innocent people, claiming that they did it in the name of their deity. In The Autobiography of Miss Jane Pittman, religion is a common theme. Jane practiced Christianity like much of the south, but she was genuine in her religion. In an earlier part of the book when she and Ned are trying to get to Ohio, they came across an ornery woman whom reluctantly served them water.

Jane was born as Honora Kelley and grew up without a mother and with an alcoholic father. She spent many years of her life in poverty and she was forced to uproot her life to go live in the Boston Female Asylum. After a few years, Jane was adopted by Mrs. Ann Toppan, and Jane spend every day being extremely jealous of her beautiful step-sisters. Especially when she was left at the alter at only 19 years old, she determined she was unlovable and turned dark and hateful. She eventually moved out to become a nurse where not long after got the name nightmare nurse (Lyle, 2011). While working in the hospital which had low supervision and security, this allowed her to do as she pleased. Jane experimented with drugs using morphine and atropine on the patients that she did not like (Lyle, 2011). No one

Robinson stayed a shoemaker in Richmond Hill. He and Christy had one more child, Joseph on August 31, 1853. The naming of all the Robinson’s and Christy’s children followed the English convention of the 18th and 19th century: The first girl is named after the mother’s mother, the first boy the father’s father. The second girl is to be named after the father’s mother and the second boy the mother’s father. The third girl after the mother and third boy the father. Then the fourth of each, mother’s or father’s eldest sister or father’s or mother’s eldest brother. The rule can be extended. Hence, with the Jacklin’s we have Ann, after Christy’s mother, Elizabeth, after Robinson’s mother, Francis, after Robinson’s dad, Andrew after Christy’s father. Now there was the gap of 4 years between children. If there was a birth that failed

Faith in Christ is the stronghold for Helen Burns. She considers living to the glory of God the purpose of her life. Her troubles and sorrows do not sway her faith, for she declares it her “duty to bear it” (56). For Helen, living a fruitful life means imitating the character of Christ. When Jane inquires why she allows her superiors to treat her unjustly, Helen first replies that Christ

Jane even receives more religious teaching from her new friend, Helen Burns. Helen says, "the Bible bids us return good for evil" (88; ch. 6). Later, shortly before Helen dies, she tells Jane "I am sure there is a future state; I believe God is good; I can resign my immortal part to Him without any misgiving. God is my father; God is my friend; I love Him; I believe He loves me" (113; ch. 9). Mr. Brocklehurst, when upset about seeing curls on a child's head says, "here in an evangelical, charitable establishment" (96; ch. 7) and even before she enters the Institution, he speaks of the "Christian duties" and "Christian grace" that the Institution holds (66; ch. 4); "The church exercised an unchallenged domination over education" (Vaughan 3).

Religion tends to play an important role in any person who believes in what they practice. Many of those who truly believe in a religion tend to be extremely devoted to it and have religious aspirations. One of the storytellers referred to as the Prioress narrates a tale about a boy whose mother taught him to reverence the mother of God. This story takes place in a Christian town which was also a ghetto in Asia. This little boy was killed by a murderer who was hired by some Jews because throughout the streets, he sang a hymn saluting Mary that did not abide by the Jews laws. According to this story, the mother of God put a grain in the little boy’s mouth to allow him to sing Alma Redemptoris so that the Christians and his mother would find his dead body and allow his soul to rest with God. As the little boy is miraculously singing an abbot states, “Dear child, I conjure thee By virtue of the Holy Trinity To say how singing is permitted thee Although thy throat is cut, or seems to be”. This holy man is astonished as to how he is still singing to ultimately be found and be at peace. The narrator attempts to get the reader to see that religion and prayer helps those who are defenseless, in this case the mother trying to find her son and the little boy wanting to be found to let his soul rest peacefully in heaven. Prayer

Sarah, after hearing the news, told Cate that it was our family’s lack of faith—and specifically, Cate’s lack of faith—that caused the baby to die. We did not “claim” God’s healing for Hannah, and if we had done so she would have been born alive. The suffering from Hannah’s death was magnified by Sarah’s assertions, and our family is still grappling with both. It has broken my mother’s heart, caused my father to believe his lack of faith killed his grandchild, and made Cate suffer more than she

After her father's death in January 1805, Jane, her mother, her sister Cassandra, and family friend Martha Lloyd, moved first to Clifton, and then, in autumn 1806, to Southampton
