Possible identity with Priscilla Cyrette-Landry
Priscilla Cyrette-Landry died on 4 October 1979 in Montreal and is described as a resident of Thunder Bay. The 2015 funeral notice for her confirmed son James Fabian Landry-Cyrette names this person as Precilla Cyrette, predeceased. The spelling, the Landry hyphen, and a death before 2015 all fit, but the 1979 death-index stub has not been read in full and does not yet name the son, so the identity stays possible. A further link from this line back to the 1879–1920 Fort William paylist Cyrettes (Ambrose Cyrette, Ambrose Jr. Cyrette) is also unconfirmed.

Death-index age and 2024 confirmation of the parental pair
The Thunder Bay Public Library / OGS Chronicle-Journal death index for 1972–1989 records "Cyrette-Landry, Priscilla (Mrs.)", aged 40, died 4 October 1979 in Montreal, notice 5 October 1979, p. 31, and also enters the same event as "Landry, Priscilla (Mrs.)."[1] That age implies a birth about 1938–1939, which would fit a mother of James Fabian Landry-Cyrette (born 14 November 1960). A 2024 funeral-home notice for a deceased grandson, Terrence John Landry (8 March 1983 – 25 August 2024), names grandparents "Jim Landry and Precilla Cyrette", which is the same parental pair already named in the 2015 notice.[2] The Precilla = Priscilla identity stays possible: the 1979 index line still does not name a husband or children, and the full 5 October 1979 notice and the 5 September 1996 notice for James Landry (CJ p. B14) have not been read. If they are the same person, a woman born c. 1939 cannot be a child of Ambrose Jr. Cyrette (died 1920), so a link back to the 1879–1920 Fort William paylist Cyrettes would need a missing generation. Unread leads on that generation include the 24 November 1992 notice for Clara Cyrette (CJ p. 22; age not in the 1988–1997 index), the 24 January 1958 notice for Bertha Cyrette (Bertha Jean; c. 1930–21 January 1958; FWDTJ p. 3; a 14 August 1950 social-index note, "In hospital"), and a 8 June 1938 FWDTJ social-index note for George Cyrett, "Canoe building at Squaw Bay" (p. 1, with picture; article unread).
