I am looking for any info on a Catherine Coolen, born about 1835 in Upper Prospect. According to her 1860 marriage to Francis Turner in Halifax City, she was a widow, and is listed as Catherine Hardiman when searching the Nova Scotia Vital Statistics. Her parents are not listed on the marriage bond.

I do not know if Catherine had any children from her first marriage, but she had Ellen and Mary with her marriage to Francis Turner, both born in Halifax City. I believe Catherine died in 1870 (not sure as the death record on NSVS is lacking in info) and I can't find any other death or census info on Francis Turner.

Their daughter Ellen married John Charles Zinn. They are listed on the 1901 census in Quarter 5, Halifax City with several children.

Many thanks,
Laurie
