Fact : not Speculation,Gabriel Wortman did have a common law partner back in 2008 and you have probably already guessed her first name

Look up the very lengthy obituary online for Beulah Mae Banfield, keeping an eye out for the name Gabriel Wortman.

(Written by the family to be published in a province wide newspaper, it is PD, in the public domain, copyright free, by Canadian copyright case law.)

It was originally published in the Halifax Herald on May 18th 2008.

(Beulah was originally a Zinck. a local, and her husband Gilbert was from Bay L’Argent : both sturdy country folk.)

Hidden there this whole time, in plain sight .

But for people used to trying to assemble their family’s history, its old hat to type in words like ”obituary” or “find a grave” “nova scotia” and then the name (Gabriel Wortman) you are seeking.

That’s all I did in this case.....
