?b?Obit. ? Mrs Baird?/b?
The announcement of the death of Mrs John Baird on Sunday morning was a surprise and a shock to many. Mrs Baird had been about as usual on Friday, and very few knew of her serious illness until the news of her demise became known. The deceased, whose maiden name was Christina Bryson, was a daughter of the late James Bryson, of Ramsay, who lived on the farm on the eleventh line now occupied by Mr John Neilson, and upon which Mr and Mrs Robt Bryson lived for a number of years. She was married to Mr John Baird, of Appleton, and they lived in Appleton, where Mr Baird died about forty years ago. Mrs Baird came to Almonte about twenty-two years ago. Of the family born to them Robert and Jane (Mrs Cameron), are in Winnipeg, Margaret (Mrs D. Shaw), in Almonte, and James is in Pilot Mound. Hon Geo Bryson, of Coulonge, and Mr Robt Bryson, of Almonte, were brothers, and Mrs And. Wilson, sr., of Appleton was a sister of Mrs Baird. The deceased was the last of her father's family to pass away and she attained the age of 74 years. The funeral will take place on Friday at 11 o'clock, to the eighth line cemetery. The deceased was much loved and respected by all who know her, and many there are who have had occasion to call her blessed.

At Appleton, Aug 15th, George Wilson, aged 79 years.

1896, Friday August 21, The Almonte Gazette page 8

?b?The Late George Wilson?/b?
The Appleton correspondent of the Herald says: The funeral of the late George Wilson, who died on Saturday evening, aged 79 years, took place yesterday to the 8th line cemetery, and was a large and representative one. The deceased was born in Yorkshire, England, and emigrated with his parents in 1837, landing in Montreal during the rebellion, when Mr Wilson did duty for some time as a soldier. Two years later they moved to Ottawa, and the family settled at Long Island, near Manotick. When Mr Wilson married he settled in Ottawa, then only a village, and lived there until 1885, when they moved to this place. His wife died here about seven years ago, and since then he has lived with his daughter, Mrs A. Wilson, jr. Although in his 79th year, he has three brothers and four sisters living: Wm Wilson, Manotick; Wardell D., Ottawa, and Rev R. Wilson, Parkdale. The sisters are Mrs Henderson and Mrs Langford, Toronto; Mrs Jennings, Ottawa; and Mrs McKnight, Almonte. The family living are John R., in Vermont; Thomas, in Nebraska; George J., in Ottawa; Mrs Wilson, here; Mrs Askwith, Ottawa; and Mrs R. Baird, Pilot Mound. Thus, one by one, the old settlers are going, and soon there will be none to tell how the first settlers cleared the land and the many trials they had to endure. The pallbearers were Messrs A. Wilson, sr., D. Stewart, Thos Arthur, Jno Baird, Wm Edwards and Wm Struthers.

George married Mary Ann McKee. Mary was born in 1824 in Gosport, Gosort Borough, Hampshire, England; died on 17 Mar 1889 in Appleton Village, Ramsay Township, Lanark County, Ontario, Canada; was buried in 1889 in Auld Kirk Cemetery, Ramsay, Mississippi Mills, Lanark County, Ontario, Canada.
