Adopted ginger curly haired baby girl BROWN Born 1930 +-2 years
Adopted ginger curly haired baby girl BROWN Born 1930 +-2 years (maybe?)
This little girl child was born from the union of Marian North BROWN born 24JAN14 & a ranchhand named Mc or MacLean (this name may be not correct) who came into The Hand Hills during the late 1920s or 1930s from the Verdun Valley area. The McLean family moved out of The Hand Hills area not having established any roots, either because of the dirty 30s with no work available OR perhaps on account of knowing of the pregnancy.
Marian, during her pregnancy, stayed with Mrs Susan MORRISON & her daughter Jean#2 in Delia until the baby was born. It was thought that the baby was born in the Hanna hospital however searches have not found Marian BROWN registered in the Hanna nor Drumheller hospitals. Marian may have gone to Calgary OR gave birth using a false first name if that were permitted back then?
It is unknown the date & year of birth of the baby girl but Jean#2 recalls that it was not winter (early Spring or Fall perhaps) as she was about 7 or 8 years of age at the time around 1932 & was playing with a friend outside. This could be 1932 +/- a couple of years.
Charlie MORRISON married Mabel BROWN in DEC 1935 & lived on the Hand Hills homestead so Mrs Susan MORRISON & her daughter Jean#2 would move into Delia to winter there since there wasn’t any room for them to live with the newlyweds. Mrs Susie MORRISON moved permanently to Delia to live in 1936, so this baby girl was born prior to 1936.
This woman would be the eldest blood grandchild of Minnie L. READ-BROWN & Hugh N. BROWN. Rumours have circulated that the father of this girl child was Mr Peacock but this has been said to be untrue.
The baby girl was said to have been born with red curly hair and no one in this Hand Hills BROWN Family has red hair.
