Description

Alice Devitt (1860-1952) was born Alice Page on 25 January 1860 at Wrangle, Lincolnshire where her father, Henry Page, was a Farms and Farming labourer. Her mother was Mary (Barton) Page. She married William Thompson, in 1879, when she was 19. There was one child of this marriage, Florence May, and William died in 1912. Shortly after, Alice moved to the Burlington area, probably because her older brother, William, was living nearby. On 2 February 1914, Alice married Isaac Irvine Devitt (1876-1939), of Hickory Farms and Farming (formerly "The Willows"). The ceremony took place at "The Manse" of Knox Presbyterian Church, Burlington. She died at the age of 92 at Centennial Manor nursing home in Milton, on 27 August 1952. The funeral took place on 22 August 1952 at the Southall Funeral Home, Milton, Ontario. Both Alice and Irvine Devitt were interred in Greenwood Cemetery, Burlington.,Photograph taken at Connaught Studios, Hamilton
