Elizabeth was born in 1901, the 5th child and first daughter of John Thompson and Mary Hiller. Although her birth registration states location as Saskatchewan, the province did not form until 1905. Technically this should be cited as The North West Territories.[1]
Bt 1921 Liza was married to Wilf Brown and farming in the Macleod District. Census also indicates that the couple had two children. Further research required as their ages are obscured in the original document.[2]
