Note: The following is the extract from Betty's baptism record:
"This is to certify Elizabeth Kana, child of John Kana and Aloysia Bernarcik born on September 24th, 1907, was baptized on October 4th, 1907 in the Church of St. Michael Parish, Staunton, Illinois by the Rev. Fr. J.A. Duval. Sponsors were Joseph Bernarcik and Aloysia Tolasch."
Elizabeth was orphaned when she was 10 - 12 years old and went to live with her maternal grandparents in Hartford? Parsboro?, Nova Scotia. When grown up, she went to Montreal to work.
On her marriage certificate, Betty signed Elizabeth Kenna, daughter of John Kenna and Louise Bernatick.
