History
Florence Mae Patterson was born 11 February 1904, the daughter of Ambrose Silliphant of Hunter River and Julia Binns of New Glasgow, Prince Edward Island. Her brother William M. was born on 29 August 1900. When William went to California in 1924 to study medicine, the family and Wellington Patterson moved with him. Wellington and Florence married on 8 May 1926 in Hollywood, California. Florence and "Well" moved back to PEI shortly thereafter to live on the Patterson homestead in Hunter River and to take an active part in the life of that community.
