Biographical Note*

Jessamine, called Jessie, was a twin to Henrietta. Birth dates for four children were found in registers of the Summerside Presbyterian Church. Further information is not available. Mrs. Beirnes (the only one in this branch of the family whose address was known by cousins in Summerside, Prince Edward Island, and Beaverton, Oregon) wrote, 'our family wants no part of being named in any family tree. We were ignored all these years and the others feel it's an intrusion at this late date to get friendly and become part of a large family for the sake of creating a tree, which they feel can be just as complete without our family, as it has always been." Jessamine and Giles lived in or near Summerside. About 1904 they moved to High River, Alberta, later going on to British Columbia.³
