Hi Deb:
Thanks.
I'm replying via the archived messages as Yahoo and Sympatico are not getting along again this long week-end and I'm not getting my posted messages back since late Friday.
I think so as well.
Perhaps the marriage broke up and George Dow Morwick moved back home to Parrsboro?
I'm on the lookout tomorrow at the Archives for some Bentley obits for Myrtle's siblings and/or half siblings which might name their sister as Myrtle "Morwick" and lock in Myrtle Evelyn Bentley as the lady in question.
Dave
