Mary Jane Carrick
Mary Jane Carrick (nee Day) (18 October 1875 - ) was the wife of J.J. Carrick and the eponym of Mariday Park, it being a portmanteau of her first and maiden names. For some reason, on Wikipedia as of 2019, Mary Jane's name is misspelled as "Mary June".
She was born 18 October 1875 in Nottawasaga, Simcoe, Ontario to farmer John Day and Catherine Montgomery.
She was married to J.J. Carrick on 20 December 1899 in Simcoe, Ontario. Their marriage certificate gives her occupation as "domestic", and her father's as "farmer". [2]
Mary Jane was a golfer, appearing in the Toronto Star as "Captain" of the Scarboro ladies' team in 1933 [3]
Death
Mary Jane Carrick died 20 January 1947 and was buried in her hometown of Simcoe, at Creemore Union Cemetery, Simcoe, Ontario. [4]
