  • Notes 
    • Mary says her mother was a twin and that she had alot of twins in the family.
      Lucy was a twin to Francis.

      RC Church records say she married John Canning in 1908 which means most likely she was remarried before having Mary. She lived on placentia road when she got married. Her status is listed as "spinster".

      1882 birthdate makes her 33 when she had Mary. I wonder what the odds are that Mary was her first child?

      According to the parish death register at http://ngb.chebucto.org/Vstats/death-reg-bk-7-1918-1918-psm.shtml The RC Burial records for Argentia Parish this is details of her death.
