传记

She was the daughter of Richard Brinn (Lightkeeper at Discovery Island). On 09/04/1902-31/08/1932 she was appointed as the first female Lightkeeper in Canada. The position paid $900 out of which she had to pay the Assistant Keeper. On 25/03/1911 her pay was increased to $1,200 equal to that of men working on similar lights (equal pay for equal work).

She did not get a holiday until 14 years later, then only because forced by ill-health.
