She may have had a sister named Amy, or Amy was a sister in law. Amy was the Godparent to her first son Peter. She immigrated in 1912 according to the 1926 Census.

She married Harry Czorny in 1925 in Drumheller, Alberta, Canada.

The family was found in the 1926 Canada Census in Macheske, Bow River, Alberta and the surname was indexed poorly as Czornef. The household was enumerated as follows:

Her husband Harry passed away by drowning in the early Fall of 1928. Sometime before 1931 Mary was living with Henry Czorny (b.1893). It does not appear he was Harry's sibling.

Relinquishment of Children

It was said Marya's vision was very poor (she may have been legally blind) due to an accident with Lime and because of her disability there was some neglect and all children were removed from the home. The approximate year was 1938. Pete was about 12, William about 11 and Michael about 9, Olga would have been 7, Lloyd was about 5 and Steven was 3. Most were reunited, except Olga and perhaps Steven.
