Hello,

My great-grandmother was Ellen Bouzanne. According to my mom's records, she was born in Conception Bay; according to my grandpa's siblings' records, she was from Little Bay.

All I know about her is that she married Roderick M McIsaac, a diamond miner. By 1924 she was living in Quebec; by 1929, Sudbury. She moved to Flin Flon, Manitoba in 1935 with her husband and children. She died in November 1966 and her service was held at St. Paul the Apostle Church in Winnipeg.

She had five children with her husband, Donalda (b.1924), Patricia (b.1926), Roderick (b.1927), Ellen Ruth (b.1929), and Gerald (b.1935). My grandpa was by another man (her family was never informed of him so it's been very difficult getting any information from the McIsaacs).

If anyone has any information on her parents or siblings I would be very grateful. I know is that she was the youngest (or one of the youngest) in a very large family of about thirteen children, and that her birthday was July 23, though none of her children know (or will tell me) the year of her birth.

This is a great big dead end, so anything would be appreciated.

Thanks!

Hi Jennifer,

Thanks for getting in touch. I was so sorry to hear about your grandmother's passing last year.

I have been in contact with Ellen's siblings' families in Newfoundland, and they were very informative about her family background. If you'd like any info, please let me know! Would you happen to have any photos of her that you would be willing to share? My Grandpa had one photo of her from one of their visits, but it must have been lost over the years. I would love to see what she looked like.

Thanks,

Jessica
