She married (c.1898) David KIRK of Dundee, Angus, s/o David Kirk Sr. and Margaret FENDER KIRK. Perhaps by the time of Euphemia's marriage the GARDINER family was also living in Dundee. Euphemia and David emigrated to Montreal, Quebec, Canada c. 1903 with their 3 little boys: David (b.1899), Thomas (b.1900), and George (b.1901). Five more children were born to the couple in Quebec including a set of twins. Sometime after 1908 the family moved to the province of Ontario residing in the city of Welland. Euphemia gave birth to 2 more children before her untimely death in 1921. I am looking for any information on Euphemia (names of parents and siblings, etc.). She is my grandmother who died many years before my birth. Euphemia's middle name was Lowe so I am assuming there was some connection between that family and the Gardiners. The only other information I have is that Euphemia may have had a brother named Thomas GARDINER who was very active in his church as organist and choirmaster. I have a carbon copy of the eulogy that was given at his funeral (year of death unknown) that says he was residing at 6 Minard Crescent at the time of his death. The city is not given but I believe it to be Dundee. Thankyou. Sharon Kirk Welland, Ontario, Canada Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
