TIBBO, Mary Ann (?)
      Born: 1868, Hare Harbour
      Died: 24 February/April 1922, at Grand John, following severe flu
      Father: John Tibbo (?)
      Mother: Ann Skinner (?)
      Married:
      Spouse: Henry Matthews
      Born: baptized 1865 at New Harbour (the 1921 Census gives his birthdate as August 1863)
      Died: 29 January 1922, at Grand John, following severe flu
      Father: John Matthews
      Mother: Jane Foote
      Children:
           [1] Sarah Jane Matthews; born 1888 at Lobster Cove, baptized May 1889, Grand John
           [2] Randell James Matthews; baptized 1889
           [3] Selina Matthews; born and baptized 1889
           [4] Thomas Matthews; born September 1895, Grand John
           [5] Lucy Harriett Matthews; born 03 April 1896, Grand John
           [6] Elizabeth Matthews; born 23 October 1897, Grand John
           [7] Jeremiah Matthews; born April 1902, Grand John
           [8] John Robert Matthews; born 1904, Grand John
           [9] Mary Ann (“Minnie”) Matthews; born February 1907
NOTE: Copy of Death certificate for Mary Ann Matthews gives 24 April 1922 as date of death yet the Date of Registration was 31 March 1922. Since Henry’s death was registered on the same date, it seems likely that Mary died on the 24th of January or February. Family tradition has always held that they died just weeks apart, which would make February 24 the most likely date. In any case, Mary Ann’s death could not have been registered in March if she didn’t die until April!
