Elizabeth Ann MORRY ^125,185

   Cause of her death was Senility.⁷⁶²

   Another name for Elizabeth was Elizabeth MOREY ⁷⁶².^,798

  Noted events in her life were:

1. Occupation: Planter & Merchant Caplin Bay (now Calvert), Between 1844 and 1852, Calvert, Newfoundland and Labrador, Canada. ^54,185 This event was shared from Matthew MORRY III who also shared it with Elizabeth COULMAN (Witness), Henry Winsor MORRY (Witness), Matthew MORRY IV (Witness), Priscilla Ellen MORRY (Witness), and William George MORRY (Witness).

2. Minister/Priest: W. J. Hoyles, 16 Feb 1845, Ferryland, Newfoundland and Labrador, Canada. ^185,190,519

3. Property: Elizabeth and Henry Morry sell "Lower Grove" to Dr. James McCullock, Mar 1900, Calvert, Newfoundland and Labrador, Canada. ²⁷⁹¹ This is the proprety that had been granted to Matthew Morry II, their grandfather, on Feb. 26, 1851. The original grant V-2, F-85 # 962 was lost in the Great Fire of 1894 but it appears that a copy was retained by the family or else they would not have been able to sell the land to Dr. McCullock. But all that has presently come to light is a photocopy of the plan that would have been attached which I found in a suitcase that used to belong to Aunt Phyl. My guess is that Uncle Bill or Uncle Howard had the full copy of the grant. This event was shared with Henry Winsor MORRY.

4. Census: Household of Elizabeth Morey [sic], 1921, Calvert, Newfoundland and Labrador, Canada. ¹⁴ I believe that she was actually living in the same house (Athlone) with Alfred Canning and his family as they are listed just ahead of her. Alfred is listed as "head" and so is she but that sometimes happened when two families were sharing a domicile. This event was shared with Alfred CANNING, John CANNING, Leonard Joseph CANNING, and Mary SWAIN.

5. Religion: Church of England, 1921, Calvert, Newfoundland and Labrador, Canada. ¹⁴ According to Kevin Reddigan in his book Courageous Souls on page 278, Miss Lizzie was the ONLY non-Catholic listed on the 1921 Census for Caplin Bay.

6. Property: Sale of remaining Morry property on south side of Caplin Bay, 10 Nov 1928, Calvert, Newfoundland and Labrador, Canada. ^2792,2793 161019:

This is how Kevin Reddigan describes this situation in his book, Courageous Souls:

In addition to the property at Athlone, Elizabeth Morry held possession of part of the old Nash/Morry property on the South Side of Caplin Bay. In Gerald L. Pocius' book, A Place to Belong - Community Order and Everyday Space, in Calvert, Newfoundland, the late Clarence O'Toole explained that before his father, James O'Toole, bought the old Morry property, fishermen who needed shore space in that area had to rent it from Miss Lizzie Morry.
He stated that "a trapman paid ten dollars a year and a trawlman paid five dollars a year'' for access to the shoreline. He also indicated that the rent money, which was due before the fishing season started, was collected on Miss Lizzie's behalf by a man named LeMessurier who ''came up" from St. John's. Family researcher, Christopher Morry, identifies this person as likely being William Warner LeMessurier, the husband of Miss Lizzie's aunt, Priscilla Ann Morry. The Newfoundland Registry of Deeds indicates that Miss Morry eventually sold this property to James O'Toole on November 10th, 1928.

7. Will: essentially a death bed will; she died three months later, 11 Jun 1930, Calvert, Newfoundland and Labrador, Canada. ⁸⁰⁸

8. Alt. Death, Bef 29 Sep 1930, Calvert, Newfoundland and Labrador, Canada. ^{54,125,422,798} 300112: In the NGB transcript of the church record the dates of burial are sometimes mistakenly given as the date of death. It isn't known if this is one of those cases.

9. Minister/Priest: Frank Severn, 29 Sep 1930, Ferryland, Newfoundland and Labrador, Canada. ^422,798
