History
Mary Magee was born in 1864 to Sophia Jamieson and James Magee in Blyth, Huron County, Ontario. It is not known exactly when Mary came out west, but it is suspected she was one of the earlier Magee family members to move to Alberta. Initially Mary lived with her brother Nels (Nelson) and later with other brother William.
In 1904 Mary married Robert Black. They homesteaded near Devon at Sec 22, Tp 51, R 25, W4. Mary and Robert had no children. Later Robert and Mary moved to the Edmonton area and lived at 6422 – 106 Street. In later years Mary’s sisters, Jenny and Hannah, also lived at this address.
Mary Magee Black died 11 Feb 1947 and is buried in the Mount Pleasant Cemetery.
