Notes for Harriett E HOWARD


Her son Benford's death record and Social Security records report her maiden
name as Howard.  She is listed in some genealogies only in reference to this
record of marriage to John Lewis, where her name was Harriett Daniel.  Some
searching led to info onher first marriage.  The following genelaogy by Don
Davis gave info on her paretns and first marriage.  Her daughter being named
Elizabeth is a strong indication that her own middle name was Elizabeth.

Residence Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada
Age 28, Birth 13 Oct 1923 Edinburgh, Scotland
Race/Nationality Scottish (Scotish)
Height 5' 5", Fair Commplexion, BLue Eyes, Light Brown Hair
Accompanied by Husband
Nearest Relatrive Brother-in-Law R G Lovin, Prince Rupert, BC

Her obituary reports she was bornin Edinburgh-Leath, Scotland, a confusin
name.  THey apparently meant Leith, an ancient town near Edionurgh, which is
in the County of Edinburgh, Scotland.  Wikipedia gives us some backgournd on
the town.

-------------------
Leith (/ˈliːθ/ LEETH, Scottish Gaelic: Lìte) is a district and former
town; burgh of barony and regality,[2] and then municipality;[3] to the north
of the city of Edinburgh at the mouth of the Water of Leith in Scotland.

Leith has a long association with Edinburgh; with an area of South Leith, the
Port of Leith,[4] under the control of the Burgresses of the Royal Burgh of
Edinburgh until 1833, and then again, subsequently, when in 1920 the town and
municipal burgh of Leith itself was brought under the auspices of the County
of Edinburgh.
--  "Leith," Wikipedia, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leith
-------------------

Mary Ann's obituary amazingly nowhere reports her maiden name.

---------------------
LOVIN, MARY ANN passed away peacefully in her sleep on October 12, 2008.  She
was born in Edinburgh-Leath [Leith, Ediburgh County], Scotland, on October 13,
1923.  Ann served in World War II where she met Clarence Brady Lovin, the love
of her life.  Clarence and Ann were married in Prince Rupert, BC on December
28, 1946.

She will be forever loved and remembered by her husband Clarence, her daughter
Jean Sandham (Fred), her granddaughters Terri Day (Mike), Lori Nicholls (Paul
Gervais), her great granddaughters Desiree, Kassidy and Kennedy Day and her
great grandson Dakoda Gervais, all of Kelowna, BC.  The family wishes to
extend sincere gratitude to all of the ladies at the Dogwood Unit -
Cottonwoods for the extra care you have given to Mom and Dad.

There will be no service by request.  Arrangements have been entrusted to
Springfield Funeral Home.  Condolences may be sent to the family by visiting
www.springfieldfuneralhome.com, 250-860-7077.

Remember Mom, Dad told you he would meet you on Princess Street, between the
