I am still trying to find out about MARY CATHERINE DAVIS (Davies) b. April 1883 Athens, Bradford County, Pennsylvania. Her siblings were Robert John, William Christopher and Anna Levinia. (All of whom I know) According to the 1910 census, Mary was "directress of nursing" at the Peoples' Hospital on Sayre, Bradford Co. PA.. Thanks to many people, I have found that there are no records showing this. By 1920 she was directress of nursing at the West Chester Co. Hospital, PA. The archives in Harrisburg have no records for women, going back that far.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.........................Virginia Davis Gross
