The following information was contributed by Carole Nurmi Cummings

Born on Templemore Street in Belfast Northern Ireland.

She divorced in the late 1930's and remarried. She did have a daughter with the second husband Harry Charles Fields on 3 August 1936.

Her father was John William Fyffe Born 19 November 1879 in Irvinestown, Fermanagh County, Ireland,

Her mother was Maria Ramsey who died in April 1908 while living at Templemore Street.

Her parents were married in 1902 in Irvinestown North Ireland.

Following her mother's death in 1910, her father married Mary Steele.

In the 1911 Census of Ireland Louisa was living with her Fyffe grandparents in House 9 in Kinine, Moorfield, Tyrone, Northern Ireland.

On 23 May 1920 she arrived in Quebec on the Ship Minnedosa.

Her father worked as a stoker and steam fitter in the Shipping Industry.

She married around 1927 to Joseph Oliver Constantino [Costantino is the correct Italian spelling]. She had three children: Frank Joseph Born 1928, Josephine Born 1931 and Mary Born 1935.

The family was living in Niagara Falls in 1931, New York and was found in the City Directory. By 1933, the family had moved. They were no longer in the Niagara Falls City Directory in 1934. Since the last child Mary was born in New York, we are not sure what part of New York the family moved to.

By the 1940 US Census, her husband Joseph had changed his name to Evans and was living in Dallas. In that Census, it was stated that he had been living in Houston in 1935.

Her grandmother was Elizabeth Catherine Gipson Born: Abt 1849 County Tyrone, Ireland. Her grandfather was John William Fyffe Born 1849 Died 1912 Irvinestown, Ireland

In the 1911 Irish Census, her grandparents had been married 40 years. They stated they had had 13 Children of whom 9 were living.

Please Note: Costantino is the correct Italian spelling. Here in the United States, Constantino was the spelling recorded in all of the records.
