  • Notes 
    • Date of death has no source (unless I got it from Ed Barbour's wall chart).

      However, I found an entry in Reg Rowsell's diary for August 25, 1947 as follows: Had a 'phone call from St. John's - cousin Theresa Barbour - saying that My Aunt Minnie Barbour (Mrs. Pierce Barbour and sister of Theresa) died today. Aunt Minnie is my father's younger sister.

      She appears to have also had a daughter Minnie (or perhaps a granddaughter). Reg Rowsell's diary in entry for Sept. 6, 1947 states: Minnie Barbour came from St. John's to visit us for the weekend.
