Please post comments and queries about the FAMILY OF CAPTAIN EDWARD ADRIAN NEISON here.

The girl is Jennie not Adrian.. Adrian Neison had two wives, Catherine the first wife and Margaret Young his second wife. I think they were sisters. Catherine died five years after marriage.
Edward Neison did go to the St Boniface Industrial School , no record of him finishing, he never took his Status.

Alexander Neison 1934

Alex: Under the Topic relating to the Suzanne-E you said: “In my early years my grandfather Edward Neison (AKA- Capt. Ed Nelson built the Suzanne E in Winnipeg and I believe he was the first Capt. on the Suzanne.” I’m presuming you were referring to this Captain Edward Adrian NEISON (b-1887).

This seems to contradict the posting by Suzanne EPSTEIN who said that the Suzanne E (her namesake) was built in 1946 by her father, Noah EPSTEIN (1898-1958) who was the owner of Selkirk Fisheries (incorporated in 1935).

Can you please clarify your posting Alex?

Mr Epstein also own and operated a clothing store in Selkirk. Mr Epstein did not himself build the Suzanne E.
That's my understanding from my grandfather.

Thanks for clearing that up Alex – makes sense. I have included your comments in this narrative and have also updated the narrative about the Suzanne E as well.

Note: Edward Adrian Neison's second wife was Rebecca Olivina Sinclair married 20 July 1923.
Third wife was Annie Bushie, I do not have dates on that marriage, still working on that.

Do you have parents/origins for these wives?
