I took an Ancestry.com DNA test and discovered that someone named Gail shares 25% DNA with me‚ on my mother’s side. This would make her either my half sister or my aunt. If Gail is my mother’s child‚ here is some background on the likely window of time in which this could have happened... My mother‚ Eileen Rankin‚ born August 31st‚ 1920 in Tisdale‚ Saskatchewan‚ trained as an RN at Grace Hospital in Winnipeg‚ Manitoba from 1942-1945. Prior to that she worked in Winnipeg as a hotel chambermaid in order to earn her tuition. Following her graduation she worked at a TB Sanitorium in Ninette‚ Manitoba then she filled in as a Public Health Nurse in Morden‚ Manitoba. In 1948 she attended UBC and earned her PHN degree after which she was posted to Revelstoke‚ BC.
