Historia
Maria Anna (Mary) Barnard (née Doranský), Ján and Mary Doranský’s daughter, was born in November 1939. After the family arrived in Montreal in 1950, Maria Anna attended the St.Roch School along with her brother Louis. Maria Anna (Mary) earned her high school diploma at the Thomas d’Arcy McGee High School and afterwards studied teaching at McGill University's McDonald College, where she met her future husband Martin Barnard.
Maria Anna worked as a camp counsellor, folk dance teacher in Québec (Canada), physical education teacher at the Sacred Heart Convent in Ottawa (Ontario) and Marionpolis College. Maria Anna and Martin Barnard were married on April 28th, 1962. Following their wedding in Montreal, the Barnards moved to St. Vincent and Grenadine (West Indies) where Martin managed the Orange Hill Estates Limited plantations. They had four children: Denyse, Joanne, Leslie and Philip.
In the 1990s, the Barnards opened a travel agency, airline and yacht club. In July 2001, Martin Barnard became a Knight of the Order of the British Empire (OBE). The Barnards currently reside in St. Vincent and Grenadine.
