Dear List,
I believe this census entry from 1910 to be the sister of my great-grandmother:
Mary (CARR) Scanlan / Scanlon was the widow of Edward, a tailor, born Ireland. They had
previously lived in Sarnia, see 1881 census. Mary, like all the CARR sisters got younger
as she aged. Earlier references indicate a birth of 1846 in Newfoundland.
