FatherDavid WANTON (1857-1933)
MotherCatherine Stewart JOHNSON (1859-1946)
Misc. Notes
1897 was the year of Queen Victoria’s Diamond Jubilee.
In 1915, Jessie was a witness for the marriage of her aunt, Jessie Stewart JOHNSON. [8010]
Arrived in the United States, from Canada, 10-Jan-1927.
The only document which gives an indication of additional middle names beyond ‘Evangeline’ is Source [106], which says “Jessie E. V. “ There is an additional mark after the ‘V’ but I can’t tell what letter it is. If it is a ‘J’ it is not in the same hand as the rest of the document. The tradition was that her full name was Jessie Evangeline Victoria Jubilee WINTON.

Misc. Notes
Witnesses: Lillian Jane WINTON; W. L. LIDSTER (I believe the “L” stands for “Louis” aka “Lou”; possibly was Walter L. LIDSTER of Regina). [8007]
