    Notes 
    • Paraphrased from a conversation with Catherine Snook West Feb 9, 2022:
      I remember a Nora Kirby and we called her Holy Nora but I'm not sure why. She would visit mom, and when she was leaving, mom would take something out from under her apron and give to her but I don't know what it was. I think her maiden name may have been Morrissey. Mom didn't talk about people and we didn't ask but I went to school with a Morrissey and later I somehow put together that she was related to Nora.
