Comments: Margaret Ackerson (Nee: ) | Portland ME United States | 1921-1940 | Comments: Positive taken from a negative. The envelope says State St. Hospital | Portland
I found Margaret in the 1936 Portland City directory. She was a student nurse at 62 State and had a residence of 52 State, about two blocks from Mercy Hospital.
Further research found Margaret Ackerson, age 30 living in Bronx, New York during the 1940 Census. She was a Nurse living at a “Nurse’s Home” on Lafayette Avenue. She had lived in Cumberland, Maine in 1935 and had been born in Maine.
Further research was not successful in determining Margaret’s parents with certainty. Items I believe I know:
Name: Margaret Ackerson
1910 – Born in Maine (?)
1935 – Attended Nurse’s school in Portland, Cumberland County, Maine.
1940 – Worked as a nurse 60 hours a week at Hunt’s Point Hospital, and boarded at 1325 Lafayette Ave.
