Kanady. She was the daughter of Alexander E. Bruce and Nancy Jane Crawford. I don't have a birth date for her but the few dates I have on her siblings show they were born in the 1850s. Her parents were buried in the Crawford Cemetery in Gallatin County. Alexander's father was Benjamin Walker Bruce, and his parents were Robert Bruce and Sally Benton. This Bruce family originated in Culpeper Co., VA. They migrated first to Wilkes Co., NC, then to Sumner Co., TN, and then to White Co., IL, before settling in Gallatin Co.

Nancy Jane Bruce (called Janice in the 1880 census) married Samuel E. Kanady in Gallatin County 1 April 1883. She was born in 1859 based on the 1880 and 1920 censuses. Samuel (1854 - 1919) was the son of Jesse Harrison Kanady and his second wife Nancy Jane Crawford, and the grandson of Moses Kanady. In the 1920 census Nancy Jane Bruce Kanady, widow, is living with her daughter Edith Hart in Dexter City, Stoddard, Missouri; but she is buried (1934) in Crawford Cemetery, Ridgway with her husband.
