ah, but at the start of the solar system the lack of ionosphere did not matter... Mars was exactly the same as earth (with even larger seas infact... 3/4 of the surface of something!!!). And venus was the same... so it's quite likely
So in all likelyhood, life could well have started there and come here!

Mirco organisms could get to earth in a comet. It is possible that thats how life started on earth.
