Anne Jane Thornton

Anne Jane Thornton (1817–1877), also spelt Ann Jane Thornton, was a 19th-century adventurer from Donegal who in 1832 posed as a boy to go to sea, in pursuit of a lost lover who had gone to the United States. She continued her career as a seaman until her arrival in London in 1835, when she was interviewed by the Lord Mayor of London. She later wrote a book about her adventures.
==Early life==
Born in Gloucestershire, in the west of England, in 1817, Thornton was the daughter of a prosperous shop-keeper. According to the ''Oxford Dictionary of National Biography'', in 1823 her mother died, and her father moved to Donegal in Ireland where he opened a successful shop.〔Wheelwright, Julie, 'Thornton, Anne Jane (b. 1817), sailor and cross-dresser' in ''Oxford Dictionary of National Biography'' (Oxford University Press, 2004)〕 ''The Lady'' magazine for 1835 adds a further detail: "...when six years old she accompanied her father to Ireland, where he afterwards possessed profitable stores and subsequently failed".〔''The Lady's magazine (and museum)'' for 1835, Improved series, enlarged, p. 160〕
