Ruth Carroll
 
 
Ruth Dorothy June Carroll is the sixth child of Frederick George Carroll and Cora Violet Quinton. She was born at home weighing less than five pounds, on January 13th, 1928. Grannie Quinton, who lived next door, took Ruth after she had been wrapped in her blankets and placed her near the back of the stove to keep her alive and warm. In 1939, the family moved to a farm south of St. Malo, Manitoba and Ruth attended the one-room schoolhouse with her brother Bob and sister Inez, three of only four English-speaking students at the school (the other students being German, Ukrainian and French). Later that same year, the family returned to Winnipeg, moving quite a few times within Winnipeg.  

In 1947, Ruth met Donald Fennell, and on October 16, 1948, they were married. Ruth and Donald have three children:

  • Susan Fennell
  • Craig Fennell
  • Maureen Fennell Born October 3, 1960
Both Grandma and Grandpa have kept busy gardening, travelling, oil painting, crafts and computers, which lead them into geneaology and years of uncovering our family's past.
