Narrative

Susanne McDougall was not in the PEI Baptismal Index, but her parents names were given on both her marriage and death records. She emigrated to the States in 1873, and in 1874 married a widower with three daughters, Edward Y. Hayward. Edward was a farmer in 1880.

In the 1880 US census, the family was in Massachusetts:

Self Edward Y. Hayward M 54 Massachusetts, United States
Wife Susannah Hayward F 27 Canada
Daughter Mary F. Hayward F 15 Massachusetts, United States (2 daughters from his first marriage)
Daughter Hattie A. Hayward F 12 Massachusetts, United States
Daughter Cornelia A. Hayward F 4 Massachusetts, United States
Son Eddie W. Hayward M 3 Massachusetts, United States
Daughter Eliza P. Hayward F 1 ---

Mrs. Edward Y. Hayward was living off Crescent, near E. Bridgewater Line in Brockton, Mass. in 1890.

Daughter Eliza had an Ellis family name, Penrose. Susanna was a widow by the time of the 1900 US census, living in Brocton Mass. She said she had had 4 children, all living. Also in her household was Elsie G. Thayer, the daughter of her sister Eliza, who had died four years earlier.
Head Susan Hayward F 48 Canada Eng
Daughter Lizzie P Hayward F 22 Massachusetts
Daughter Viola E Hayward F 16 Massachusetts
Niece Elsie G Thayer F 8 Massachusetts

Susannah Hayward of 329 West Elm Street died on July 17 1909 at 56 years, 11 months and 26 days. "She was the widow of Edward Hayward and a native of Prince Edward Island, coming to Brockton 40 years ago. Mr. and Mrs. Hayward spent many years of their married life at the old Hayward homestead on Alger Street. An invalid for more than three years, Mrs. Hayward bore her affliction with much fortitude...She is survived by four daughters, Mrs. W. J. Slack (Cornelia); Mrs. C. W. Copp (Lizzie); Miss Viola E. Hayward and Miss Elsie G. Hayward (sister Eliza's daughter, later Mrs. Nelson Foley) and one son, Edward W. Hayward, all of Brockton."

One of the newspaper write-ups said that Susannah was by profession a nurse. She was also survived by three step-children by a previous marriage of her husband.

Although no sisters or brothers were named in her obituary, the McDougall sisters living in the Brockton/East Bridgewater area of Massachusetts must have been in contact, as both Sarah and Susannah provided homes for Eliza's daughters.
