26. Nina Lister. Daughter of David Lister & Janet "Jessie" Torrance. Born 1874 in Harvey.

    She married John "William" Patterson, son of James Wesley "Jim" Patterson & Mary Swan, 17 Sep 1902 in Harvey Presbyterian Church. Born 23 Jan 1875 in Tweedside, NB. Christen 9 Mar 1875 in Harvey Presbyterian Church. Died 1941 in Ipswich, Mass.

    From The Gleaner, Fredericton, 27 Dec 1895:  Harvey Station (York Co.) Dec 22 -- Wm Patterson of Tweedside came home last week from New Hampshire in rather a critical condition.  While working in the woods he was struck on the head by a falling tree and rendered unconscious for several hours.  He did not receive the full force of the blow, which no doubt would have proved fatal.  The tree also passed over his legs bruising them badly.

    In 1918, William was living in Boston.

    William and Nina lived in Ipswich, Mass., and had three children.

    They had the following children:

91            i.            Dorothy May Patterson           
92            ii.            James Millard Patterson            
93            iii.            Audrey Jenette Marguerite Patterson
