General Notes:
R. J Power researcher - Elizabeth was born in Oderin on January 8, 1900. Upon her mother's death, she was the only member of the family to stay in Oderin. She may have lived with Mrs. Mullett, the aforesaid midwife. Graduated from Littledale College in St. John's about 1918, she taught school in Grand Falls until she was married to Joseph Blackmore on October 8, 1924. Elizabeth was very well read and interested in music to the extent that she made sure all seven children had a good education and a grounding in music. Both she and her husband, Joseph, agreed that a well-rounded education was the best gift they could give their children and they devoted their life to this aim. Elizabeth died on May 19, 1951, in Grand Falls. The Blackmores had three sons -- Donald, Herbert and Robert -- and five daughters -- Helen, Margaret, Elizabeth, Madeline and Theresa.
Elizabeth married Joseph Blackmore, son of Daniel Blackmore and Mary Bryan, on 8 Oct 1924 in Grand Falls, Newfoundland. (Joseph Blackmore was born in May 1897 in Glenwood, Newfoundland, died in 1976 and was buried in Immaculate Conception RC Cemetery - Grand Banks, Newfoundland.)
