Notes
She married on 25 Dec. 1920 Dr. Charles Lightfoot Roman whom she had known while they both served in the Canadian General Hospitals in France. They lived in Valleyfield, QC and had five sons. Dr. Roman had only completed three years of his medical studies so he was an orderly.
Graduated from Royal Victoria Hospital, Montreal, Quebec
Was paid $3.60/day while in service, $48 sent back to Canada
After the war she worked at the Montreal Cottons in Valleyfield with her husband
Additional Next of Kin Notes
Also listed George H. Sedgewick of 17 Poplar Plains Rd, Toronto as brother, very possibly an error on the part of the person taking the information.
