Parrsboro Record, Tuesday, March 12, 1940, pg. #3; Reel #2863, NSARM,
Halifax, N.S.
OBITUARY: Mrs. Michael Walsh
The many friends of Mrs. Michael Walsh were saddened to hear of her sudden
passing Friday afternoon. Suffering a severe illness a few weeks ago, she
was apparently making a favorable recovery and was sitting up on Friday when
she suddenly passed away. Formerly Miss Anna Margaret Gould, daughter of the
late James and Anna Christie Gould, she was born at River Hebert 78 years
ago. She was a devout member of St. Brigid's R.C. Church in which
congregation she will be greatly missed as an earnest and willing worker.
Leaving to mourn her loss are her husband, Michael Walsh; one daughter,
Margaret (Mrs. Boyd Milner) of Round Hill, Annapolis County; and a daughter
and four sons by a former marriage - (Stella) Mrs. Cecil R. Pickard, who has
been with her mother for the past few weeks, and, Alvin, Fred, Bliss and
Siddal, all of Boston. Also surviving is a sister, Mrs. George C. Rose of
Urbania, Hants County. The funeral was held on Monday morning at 10:30 with
Requiem Mass celebrated by Rev. Thos. MacDonald. Interment was made in St.
Brigid's Cemetery. The late Mrs. Walsh's daughter, Mrs. Milner arrived on
Sunday to attend her mother's funeral. In December she was called home by
the severe illness of her father, Michael Walsh and after two months visit
with her parents, she had only returned to her home in Annapolis County a
short time before her mother's illness a few weeks ago.

children from m/1, McKay - Clara, James & Laura
