Jesse Elliott Priest of Diligent River

I show Emma Bower "Amy" Priest as m/1 Gesner Robert Dowe, s/o Samuel Dowe
and Matilda Halliday on 18 Apr 1923 at Grace United Church, Port Greville. I
suspect a possible separation of Gesner and Amy as he's not listed as the
other 2 daughters in Jesse's obit. are as well as in Gesner's obit., she's
not mentioned.

Jesse's sister, Winnifred Alberta m/1 Gilbert Wall; m/2 Mariner S. Trenholm;
m/3 Hollis Bernard Anderson. Sister, Arthemus E. Priest m/1 Thomas E.
Trenholm.
