    Ev Miller's notes:
    My Grandma, Mary Ann, was a very strong woman both physically and mentally. I've always understood that she was a real pioneer, helped Grandpa build the two story log house which still stands and is lived in . She was a midwife and nurse to many of the neighbours, grew a most bountiful garden, loved to read books, and could do all kinds of handiwork, knitting, crocheting, etc.

    (Research):Check Census 1881 to see if she worked for Samuel Bolton.

    Birth:
    Marriage Certificate indicates possibly 1859.
