    Notes:

    According to Jeanette (Wood) Hunter, Inez was the only one of her siblings born in Canada.

    November 15, 2012 - talk with Brian Kirkpatrick
    Inez went to dance school in Calgary. Miss Jean Gauld, late 1920s or mid-1930s. Inez could stretch her leg straight up and touch the top of the doorway with her toes. I do know grandma had beautiful long legs.

    According to Archives Canada, "Jean Helen Gauld, 1902?-1984, moved to Calgary, Alberta with her father around 1914. She won many awards for her Highland dancing, and by the age of 14 established herself as a professional dance instructor. She expanded her range to include ballet, ethnic, and modern styles. Later in her career she taught at Mount Royal College and the Montessori School of Calgary." There are photos of her in the Glenbow Archives, Calgary.

    According to her son George, Inez was a Congregationalist in Calgary, later became United Church. (Not clear to me from my notes if the Congregationalist Church became the United Church or if Grandma did, hereself.) Also according to George, Mavis Deeves was Grandma's best friend growing up.

    Inez married George Theodore KIRKPATRICK on 24 Aug 1933 in Calgary, AB, Canada. George (son of James Douglas KIRKPATRICK and Emma BOWE) was born on 8 Oct 1910 in Hope, BC, Canada; died on 24 Mar 1972 in Calgary, AB, Canada. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

    Notes:

    Note: Alfreda's daughter Jeanette says she was named after her father's first wife, Alphreda! She never knew the correct spelling of her name until she had to order a copy of her birth certificate one day. It came back saying her name was spelled Alphreda and from then on she used that spelling for official purposes, but kept the spelling she was used to for informal day-to-day purposes.
