ELIZABETH HAINING
1890-1993
Elizabeth (Haining) Tobin died in 1993. In that year, as United Nations peacekeepers, Canadian forces battled Serb rebel forces in Croatia. These were the most severe battles fought by Canadian troops in decades.
According to the Ontario marriage registration (1915 #018353), Elizabeth Tewdie Haining married Earl Morrison Tobin in Hamilton, 30 December 1915. In December 1915, the conscription crisis continues as the Allies must find troops to continue fighting the First World War.
Elizabeth, daughter of Robert Haining and Phyllis Green, was born in Dumfries, Scotland. The Forth Bridge in Scotland, the longest bridge in Britain, opened in 1890.
