    • According to her death certificate, Mary Olive Brittain is the daughter of George Allen and Elizabeth Thibeau (both born in Nova Scotia). Her birthplace is listed as Hectanooga, however her birthplace is listed as Carleton on her marriage record. The informant was Dorthy Cleveland. She ws buried 11 November 1961.

      She married Burpee Brittain on March 1886, in Weymouth, Nova Scotia. Please note that her marriage record lists her name as Mary S. Allen, rather than Mary O. Allen. The middle name listed on her memorial is per her death certificate (the only record which states a full middle name) and her headstone. Many online trees have her middle name as Susan, but there are no records which states her middle name as Susan.
