Notes

There are a number of discrepancies on Alice Beatrice Harris’ marriage affidavit. She states she is twenty-one years old, and therefore born about 1900, and that she was born in Bracebridge, Muskoka, she gives her father’s name as Albert Edward Harris and her mother’s maiden name appears to be Mallory. In the 1911 Canadian census, she is living with her family at Muskoka, Ontario, aged 6 and born 1904 in England. Her family emigrated to Canada in 1905; a younger sister, Ethel Phoebe, was born at Bracebridge, Muskoka. Her parents are recorded as Alfred Edward Harris and Emma Jane Smaldon.
