Family Settlers

Neither of Marlene's parents were from Amber Valley. Her father's family came from Texas and settled in North Battleford, Saskatchewan. Her mother's family came from Missouri and settled in Wildwood, Alberta (formerly known as Junkins) as well as in parts of British Columbia. Marlene spent her childhood visiting relatives in British Columbia and Manitoba and it was not until she met her husband Neil that she came to Amber Valley.
