• Notes

  Both Beatrice and Martha Fairbanks listed their ages as about 4 to 5 years younger than they actually were in 1913. In Martha’s case this practice continued at least through the 1921 canadian census. [7, 9] In [LaAC-1913a] Beatrice and Martha Fairbanks were listed as traveling to “Huntsville, Ontario”. Huntsville is where their elder sister Euphemia was living with her family in 1913. [7]
