• Notes

  Alberta was the daughter of Hugh McIver and Caroline McGuigan born October 2, 1894. She was the third oldest child and oldest daughter. She lived on the family farm in Kinkora for sixteen years. Her first venture took her to Charlottetown where she studied the tailoring trade with Callbeck’s, maker of men’s suits. After several years, she went to help her brother Louis with his General Store, in Aroostook Jct., N.B. She handled the Post Office as well as clerked in the store. Alberta met Mike Kennedy, who was a traveling salesman for Canada Packers, at the Post Office. They were married in Edmundston, N.B. on December 29, 1930. She lived her entire life in Edmundston, N.B. where she and Mike had three children - much against her doctor’s advice as she did not enjoy good health in the early part of her marriage. Edmundston became the half way spot for all travelers between P.E.I. and points West. All were warmly greeted with a ready smile, dinner, and place to put their head. She sold her home in 1972 and moved to Mississauga to take up residence with her daughter Peggy and husband Charles, and their two daughters Pam and Shauna. She became a most vital part of their family. From 1973 to 1983, Alberta, Peggy, Charles and girls spent their summers in Baker Lake, N.B. in a cottage she and Mike built in 1948. While she lived in Ontario, she never forgot her beloved cottage. It seemed fitting that she should die on their way “home” (to Baker Lake). She had a full life and enjoyed giving unselfishly of herself. Submitted by Peggy Seaman, daughter
