Elsie Mavis Wilson

From Elaine Wilson by email 26.2.2011 "Mavis never married. I was told that she had fallen in love with a man and her mother disapproved of him and Mavis went into a deep depression and fought depression throughout her life. I have no idea where the money came from to support her. She had a room in a boarding house in Kingston, Ontario when I found out about her and starting to write to her. She only wrote very short notes and nothing much about family. She did mention in a note 19/18/1981, that as a school girl she "liked reading, writing, composition, drawing and spelling? She loved to paint and was an avid reader when we corresponded stating that she read 18 or more books a week. She spent many hours at the library near by in charge of the Patients Library and at one time wrote that her paintings were on display there."
