Birth*Mary Ann Elta Shier was born on 29 August 1890. 
She was the daughter of Francis John B. Shier and Emma (Ellen) Vanderburgh. 
(Witness) CensusMary Ann Elta Shier appeared on the census of 1891 in the household of Francis John B. Shier in Scott Twp., Ontario County, Ontario, Canada. 
(Witness) CensusMary Ann Elta Shier appeared on the census of 1901 in the household of Francis John B. Shier in Scott Twp., Ontario County, Ontario, Canada. 
(Witness) CensusMary Ann Elta Shier appeared on the census of 1921 in the household of Frank Leslie Shier in Scott Twp., Ontario County, Ontario, Canada. 
(Witness) Fact 1Mary Ann Elta Shier witnessed the Fact 1 of Morley Roy Shier; On October 3, 1911, Montgomery as Mrs. Ewan MacDonald was introduced as the minister’s new wife and honoured with a reception dinner at St. Paul’s Presbyterian Church. Three of the families she met that evening – The Shiers, the Brookses and the Lapps – would never have expected to be mentioned in her books. Catherine* and James Shier’s farm was located a few acres away from the Leaskdale Church. They had three children in 1911: Mabel was nineteen; Morley, sixteen, was a student at Uxbridge High School; and Harvey was nine.

The sons [of the three families] would have known the MacDonald’s for only a few years, but their families and relations became friends especially the younger siblings because they grew up during the fourteen years that Montgomery created and directed the Young People’s Association.

Morley Roy Shier knew “Mrs. Mac” for about two years before he left to attend the University of Toronto’s teacher-preparation program. Bob Brooks was in Ewan’s congregation for about 6 years before he enlisted. Gordie Lapp was at home foe only a year before leaving to work and study pharmacy. They joined three different military units at different times between 1915 and 1917. These three young men represent the sacrifices that small communities all over Canada invested in the world conflict. Montgomery planned, wrote and revised Rainbow Valley during the final years of the war, from 1917 to 1918. Montgomery penned the dedication to the pilot Morley Shier and the two soldiers Bob Brookes and Gordie Lapp, when she finished the Rainbow Valley manuscript in late December 1918, three months after the death of the last casualty, Flight Lieutenant Shier.

Several Shier family members were Montgomery’s friends, including Morley’s cousin, Mary Shier McLeod. Readers of Montgomery’s journals will recall Morley’s uncle, Dr. Walter Columbus Shier, who was a physician in Leaskdale and Uxbridge. Dr. Shier attended the MacDonald family and was the first doctor to treat Ewan’s depression. Another uncle was Rob Shier** who lived in Zephyr; his third wife was Lillis Harrison (Lily Reid), Montgomery’s household helper from 1912 to 1915 and a trusted friend throughout Montgomery’s life.

Morley was a teacher first at Corson’s Siding, northeast of Leaskdale and then at Earl Grey School in Toronto. Shortly after Montgomery began work on Rainbow Valley, Morley stared pilot training. He went to England in May 1918, after basic flight training, to learn combat and reconnaissance skills at the British advanced flying schools. He was assigned to the 256th Royal Air force Squadron formed in June 1918 at Seahouses, Northumberland. The squadron did coastal surveillance for German submarines and flew two-seater Canadian built de Havilland DH-6 planes, with a range of about four hours of flight. One of the many nicknames for the DH-6 was “the Flying Coffin”.

Shier became an active RFC pilot in June 1918 at the age of twenty-three. About one-quarter of the RFC squadron crews were Canadian. Most RFC combat pilots survived an average of about three weeks once they began their combat flights. Although reconnaissance pilots were not exposed to enemy fire as often as combat pilots, the risk to them was still significant; they were not armed but could carry bombs, and parachutes were not allowed because they were too heavy.

After two months of flying, Flight Lieutenant Shier and his plane went down in the fog in the North Sea on Sept 6, 1918 about twenty miles from shore. Montgomery did not hear of Morley’s death until a month later, three days before Germany and Austria agreed to peace in October 1918.Shier’s name is on the Hollybrook Memorial in Southampton, England, erected by the Imperial Ware Graves Commission with the names of those lost at sea. Members of the Shier family placed a marker in the cemetery at Leaskdale and a plaque in the church to honour him at home.

Death*Mary Lucinda Shier died on 27 June 2015 in F. W. Green Memorial Home, Cranbrook, British Columbia, Canada, at age 87; Mary Lucinda “Mary Lou” Price
(nee Shier)
1928 – 2015
Our mom, Mary Lou Price, passed away peacefully on the morning on Saturday, June 27, 2015 at the F. W. Green Memorial Home in Cranbrook at 87 years of age.
Mom was born near Colonsay, Saskatchewan on March 2, 1928 to Samuel Edgar and Sarah Lucinda Shier. She grew up on the family farm and finished grade 12 there. She attended Bible School in North Battleford, SK for two years and then continued on to Nursing School and became a Registered Nurse at Saskatoon City Hospital. She met ‘the handsome’ Nelson J.A. Price from Sonningdale, SK in 1950 (before all the schooling) and he waited for her to finish all of that before they married on March 12, 1955 in Saskatoon. They immediately moved out west to Marysville, BC (Kimberley) to start their new life together.
Mom and Dad raised four children, Dale, Gwen, Arlene and Cory in Marysville. Dad worked with his brother in construction, then purchased Ryan’s Tire Supply in Kimberley and then eventually started their own business of Price Excavating…….all the while with mom doing the books!
Mom also worked casual and eventually part-time as an RN at the Kimberley and District Hospital and the Kimberley Special Care Home “The Pines” while raising her family. She loved volunteering and was very social. She was involved with the school PTA while we were in grade school, belonged to the Marysville Sewing Circle, and volunteered her time with various community events. She was also a lifetime member of the Kimberley/Marysville Hospital Auxiliary, serving many years in the capacity of secretary and then treasurer.
A very big and important part of her life was her church family at the Cranbrook Christian Centre “The Dwelling Place”. She had a deep abiding, strong faith in God which resulted in her very positive outlook on life, in which she loved to share with everyone she met. She volunteered her time in the ministry of greeting cards dubbed as “The Card Lady”.
Mom was predeceased by her mother Sarah Lucinda Shier ten days after her birth in 1928; her aunt Elizabeth Shier in 1950 who lovingly helped raise her with her dad; her father Samuel Edgar Shier in 1952; her husband of 34 years Nelson J.A. Price in 1989; her infant grandson David Clarke in 1995; her sister-in-law Marjorie Shier in 1996 and her brother Maxwell Shier in 2003.
Mom, Mary Lou, has left to cherish her memory, her four children Dale (Marjorie), Gwen (David) Manarey, Arlene (Perry) Clarke and Cory; five grandchildren Anita (Scott) Falk, Julie Price, Karen (Curtis) Kaldestad, Emily and Robbie Clarke; three great grandchildren Mason, Hannah and Riley; her brother Herbert (Gudrun) Shier; sister-in-law Doreen Taylor; her brother-in-law Byron and his wife Hazel Price as well as many cousins, nieces and nephews who affectionately called her ‘Louie’, Aunt Louie, aunt Mary Lou and great auntie!
Our family is so blessed by her life and she has left us with a rich heritage and legacy. Thank you mom!
Mom was interred beside our dad (Nelson) in a private family gathering at Marysville Cemetery on Friday, July 3, 2015. A memorial gathering and celebration of her life will be held later this summer.  
Burial*She was buried on 3 July 2015 in Marysville Cemetery, Kimberley, East Kootenany Regional District, British Columbia, Canada.
