Record notes

  • Created after user acceptance of source-border-crossing-manifest-card-for-catherine-margaret-ponceby-1950 on 26 April 2026.
  • The accepted 1950 Detroit border crossing manifest card records the passenger as "Catherine (Kathrya) Margaret Ponceby", age 22 years 9 months, born 7 June 1927 in Edmonton, Alberta, Canada.
  • The card records Catherine as a Canadian-born nurse admitted at Detroit, Michigan, on 28 February 1950 to reside permanently at 9715 Logan Court, Cleveland, Ohio.
  • [object Object]
  • The accepted card does not identify Catherine's mother, and the exact legal or biological nature of the Donald Ponceby relationship remains unresolved.
  • The same card names brother Peter Cook of Cranbrook, British Columbia; that Cook/Ponceby relationship remains an open research question and is not represented as a canonical relationship here.
  • The proposed Cuyahoga Probate marriage-index entry for Kathryn Margaret Ponceby and Robert Ray Johnson may refer to this person, but the full marriage record is still needed before adding a spouse relationship or marriage event.
