| Notes |
- JULIA HAZEL CANNING - Hazel was also from the northern part of the province. She was born in 1908 in St. Augustine's, which was also called Badger Bay, or Julie's Harbour, after her grandmother Julia Glavine. The Canning family moved into Bishops Falls shortly after that. Hazel spent the late 1920's working in Boston, but came back to Newfoundland to stay after the untimely drowning of her sister Mary. She and Bob lived in Windsor and Grand Falls (the two towns have since amalgated) all their married lives and raised nine children. Hazel was the last of her generation of the Canning family. She passed away in April of 1998. I can't trace the Canning name as far back as the others. Hazel's grandfather, Thomas Canning, was born near Ferryland, it is said, about 1858. We know for sure that he drowned in Fleur-de-Lys about 1884. His wife, LUCY LEWIS, went on to marry two other men and outlive both of them as well. Altogether Lucy had seven children. To paint a more complete picture of that side of my family, the report actually contains all of Lucy's descendants, not just those of Thomas Canning.
