      History

      Elsie Muriel (Mosher) Bailly (1911-2000), school teacher for 19 years then a housewife and mother, was born November 16, 1911 to John Mosher and Waitie (Smith) Mosher in North Brookfield Mines, Queens County, Nova Scotia (NS). She started teaching school in the rural community of East Jordan, in the Municipality of Shelburne, NS in 1930, with a temporary teacher’s license from the Nova Scotia Teachers’ College (also known as Provincial Normal College) in Truro, NS. Over the next 3 years, she earned her “B” class teacher’s license via correspondence courses from the College, while continuing to earn a living teaching. She taught grades 1 to 5 in several rural, one-room schools in southwest Nova Scotia, including First South (1931-32), West Dublin (1932-33), Maders Cove (1933-34 to 1935-36), Sable River (1936-37 to 1937-38), Tusket (1938-39 to 1939-40), Pentz (1940-41), and Riverport (1941-42). In 1941 she received her “A” class license and was hired by the Town of Mahone Bay, NS where she taught from 1942 to the end of March 1949 when she resigned her post. In ca.1947 she married Donald Bailly (ca.1914-2007) of Lunenburg, NS and had 2 children: Suzanne and Ronald. She died in 2000, in Lunenburg.
