My Grandmother, Ellen Mary Tobin, was born July 8th 1904 in Ship Cove (Cape Shore) Placentia Bay, Newfoundland, Canada. Her parents were John William Tobin and Mary Bridget Follett. She was the 3rd child of eight children. My mother told me, my grandmother was a school teacher before she was married at the age of 22. Recently, Uncle Ray shared the story, that his mother was paid $25.00 every three months for teaching. The school inspector, Johnny Conran, who was also a family friend, found his mother a different job as housemaid for the Govenor in St. John's. This job paid 25.00 a month. Uncle Ray states, it was during this time his mother Ellen and his father Stephen met.
Ellen married Stephen Flynn, son of Stephen Flynn and Mary Ann Tubrid, on 25 Apr 1927 in St. John's, Newfoundland and Labrador, Canada. (Stephen Flynn was born on 26 Feb 1895 in Harbour Main, Newfoundland and died on 19 Aug 1981 in Harbour Main, Newfoundland.)
