Biography

Cora Edith White was born in 1873, fifth child of Abel White and Maria Louisa Jersey.[1] Her birth date is documented in the 1901 census referenced below. She first appeared on the 1881 census at the age of 8.[2] Then she was recorded with her parents on the 1891 census, at age 18.[3]

Cora married Aulden Burton Bailey in March of 1895, the marriage taking place in St. Armand Baptist Church, where Cora's grandfather Rev. F. N. Jersey once preached.[4] The couple had two children, both born in Potton, Quebec:[5]

  1. Iris Dorothy, b. 11 Dec 1895, m. Albert Brouillette, 3 May 1921; d. 24 Aug. 1966, and
  2. Vera Elizabeth, b. 3 Jan. 1899; m. John Young 28 June 1930; d. 26 Dec. 1970.

A news item in April 1903 reported that "Potton. Mrs. Alden Bailey, nee Miss Cora White, is in the last stages of consumption".[6] Cora passed away just a few weeks later at the age of only 30. She was buried in Mansonville Protestant Cemetery, in Mansonville, Quebec.[7]
