The Almonte Gazette, Tuesday Nov 9, 2004, page 6 Obituary World War II veteran Ed Scott died Oct 28 Phillip Ambroziak, Associate editor Almonte resident and World War II veteran Ed Scott will be remembered for both his heroics and his humanity. Mr. Scott, a lifelong resident of Almonte, died at his home on Malcolm Street Oct 28. He was 85. "He was just a super guy," remarked fellow WW ll veteran and Almonte resident J.C. Smithson. "I knew him from day one. from school days. We went to public school and high school together, then when the war came along, we both left Almonte." While in the military, Mr Scott was a member of the Stormont, Dundas and Glengarry Highlanders, which in turn was part of the ninth Canadian Infantry Brigade. This allegiance resulted in the young soldier seeing action overseas. According to documentation provided to the Gazette by Smithson, the boat carrying Mr. Scott sailed June 4, 1944 (D-Day) from England to France. Come January 12, 1945 and with snow on the ground, wartime action saw a German patrol; camouflaged in white suits, get too close to an "A" Company platoon, Ed challenged the first figure he saw, eventually shooting him in the head. This occurred around 5:45 a.m. "They would use various passwords, and at this particular time the password was 'big dick' " Smithson said. "When Eddy asked this fellow for the password and didn't hear 'big dick', he shot him between the eyes." The alarm brought up the rest of the platoon and they engaged the Germans. Private Scott's shot had killed the officer. It was this incident that earned Mr Scott the prestigious Military Medal. Shortly after receiving the medal, Mr. Scott much correspondence from military dignitaries, including then Governor General Vincent Massey. "May I congratulate you very warmly indeed on the decoration which you have been awarded." Massey wrote in a letter addressed to Scott. "We are all proud that such fine service as you have given has thus been recognized. With all good wishes in which Mrs Massey joins." Smithson said that, from what he knew of Mr Scott's personality back then, he would have been a great asset to any and all wartime battles he may of been a part of. "He was a fast moving fellow who never sat around and did nothing - he was very active." Smithson explained. "He would do anything for his buddies or his fellow man, so I can fully understand why he did hold back during that charge." Picture Even when they were boys, Smithson recalled quite a bit of excitement surrounding the things Mr Scott did. "He was a normal school boy, but a bit gung ho" he stated." He never backed down from too much. I remember when we were in high school; my family was not well enough off for me to have a bicycle, but Eddy had a little bicycle with no fenders. I'd ride on the cross bar and he'd take from the high school, across town and down the Bay hill, which at that time was not paved. I was picking sand out of my teeth a lot back then, but at least I had a ride and didn't have to walk all the way home. He was such a great guy." Following his return from the war, Mr Scott and his brother Arthur (Dinty) purchased and operated the Superior Restaurant. "They operated the restaurant for a number of years and did a good job with it" Smithson said. "Their favourite special for us young fellows was the chocolate milkshake. Following his funeral and the gathering at the cemetery, many of us gathered at the superior to talk about Eddy and old times." "The last time I saw Eddy before the war was probably in early December of 1840," he said. "I spent my last visit before I went overseas at the Superior, having a coke with Eddy and another friend, George Jackman, George was sent to Japan and ended up a prisoner and was executed. His family never really found out what exactly had happened." Mr Scott had planned to attend this thursday's Remembrance Day ceremony in Almonte, but now his memory will be in the for front of the minds on many on hand to observe Nov 11. "Ed Scott was a very fine citizen, a great guy who loved to fish and boat, and who had a cottage at White Lake," Smithson recalled. "He really enjoyed getting away and simply enjoying that relaxing lifestyle." Mr Scott was predeceased by his wife Una Hazel Jelly and his brothers Arthur and Bethune Scott. He is survived by his nephew David (Barbara) Scott, Owen (Sharon) Jelly and rich (Marg) Morgan; nieces Lynn (Jack) Cullen, Judy (Gilles) Belanger, Jan (Les) Reynolds; many great-nephews and great-nieces and cousins. Visitation and funeral were held at the Kerry funeral Home Oct 30. Rev Heather Kinkaid officiated. Interment was at the Auld Kirk Cemetery.

Dear Uncle of David (Barbara) Scott, Lynn (Jack) Cullen, Judy (Gilles) Belanger, Own (Sharon) Jelly, Jan (Les) Reynolds and Rich (Marg) Morgan. Fondly remembered by his many great-nieces and great-nephews, cousins and many friends. Predeceased by his brothers Arthur (Dinty) and Bethune. Visitation and funeral services took place at Kerry Funeral Home, Almonte on Saturday October 30, 2004. Interment at the Auld Kirk Cemetery. Ed was a veteran of W.W.II and a proud member of the S.D.&G. Highlanders. A recipient of the Military Medal, he served his country with pride as a member of the landing force on Juno Beach, June 6, 1844. The family would like to thank friends and neighbours who particularly over the past six years, since Una's death, shared their companionship and company with Ed. Special thanks to Elford Giles, Alan Cochran and Linda and Lindsay Thomas without whom Ed could not have fulfilled his wish to remain in his home. You truly demonstrate the qualities of small town living; the reason Ed was proud to call Almonte his home for 85 years.	Scott, Edward Davis (I1615)

Suddenly stricken on Saturday morning, at 7.30 o'clock at his home, 93 Glen Avenue, Ottawa, and unconscious since then, John Carnochan, one of the best known residents of Ottawa, former alderman for five years representing Capital Ward, and for many years engaged in the roofing business in Ottawa, died Tuesday. There were few residents more familiar to the people of Ottawa than Mr Carnochan, and he was particularly well known in civic circles. News of his death will be received with sincere regret. Always enjoying the best of health, he had been active and around up to the time of his seizure. He was in his 79th year. Mr Carnochan was born in Scotland, his father being John Carnochan, a sea captain who sailed between Halifax and the Old Country. He came to Canada as a boy of about nine with his parents, and the family settled in Lombardy, about eight miles from Smiths Falls, on a farm. He lived for a time in Almonte, where he was telegraph operator at the C.P.R. station. As a young man Mr Carnochan went to Montreal, where he was in the roofing business for a time before moving to Ottawa and for 38 years he was engaged in the same occupation in the Capital. Always interested in the welfare and advancement of Ottawa, he ran for alderman in 1910 to represent Capital Ward and was elected, and held office for five years during which period his voice was always heard in City Council on behalf of improvements for his ward, as well as for the city at large. He was a quiet man, however, but made many friends who respected him for his honesty and principles and dependability at all times. Mr Carnochan was a Presbyterian but after church union he attended Southminster Church. He was a member of Doric Lodge, A.F. and A.M. No 58, and other Masonic lodges, for many years and took a great interest in the work of his lodge. Mr Carnochan retired from active business five years ago. He was a Justice of the Peace. Mr Carnochan is survived by his widow, who was formerly Jennie Campbell of Almonte; four sons, Donald Campbell, Gordon John and Fenton, and one daughter, Miss Eileen R.N.

She was, before her marriage 14 years ago, Evelyn Ruby Craig, third daughter of the late Robert Craig and Mrs. Craig of Fitzroy Harbour. Her mother passed away at Mrs. Baird's home only 4 months ago. She is survived by her husband and 6 small children, viz., Augusta, R.J., Ruby, Douglas and Mary, the youngest only 2 years old, also three sisters and two brothers. Breta, Mrs. Arthur Tripp, Edna, Mrs. H. J. McBride, Muriel, Mrs. Garnet Greene, Andrew J. Craig, Pakenham and Wesley M. Craig of Fitzroy Harbour. The late Mrs. Baird lived all her life in Fitzroy Township, Carleton County, . The remains were brought home Saturday afternoon and on Monday afternoon the funeral took place at St. Paul's Anglican Church and Cemetery on the 9th line Fitzroy.

11176	The serious illness of Mr. James W. Campbell was a matter of concern to all our citizens, and when on Tuesday morning of last week Mrs. Campbell was called to Montreal, whither her husband had been taken for hospital treatment, there spread the impression that his recovery could not be looked for. On Wednesday evening a telegram was received conveying the sad intelligence that the doctors in the hospital gave him only two hours more to live. This was a preparation for the telegram received on Thursday morning, announcing that his death occurred at half-past eleven o'clock on Wednesday night. Mr. Campbell entered Victoria Hospital, in Montreal, on Monday, March 27th. Before going to the hospital he had been ill for four weeks, and twice in that time his life was despaired of. But he gained strength rapidly, and was doing as well as could be expected until a day or two before his removal to the hospital. To the friends who called on him the day before he was taken to Montreal he appeared to be in the best of spirits and expressed his confidence that he would soon return in better health. No doubt his cheerfulness enabled him to prolong the struggle for life, but the Divinity that shapes our ends had decreed against his recovery. A week ago Friday last he underwent the first operation, which was highly succesfull and promised the most favorable results, but on Monday of last week he took a turn for the worse, requiring a second operation the following day. He suffered intensely after this operation, but remained conscious up to the last few minutes of his life. Characteristic of his business-like turn of mind was his action in settling all his bills with the hospital authorities a few hours before his death. Mr. James Deachman, who accompanied him to Montreal, was with him until the end. His remains were brought home on Thursday night. Deceased was a son of the late Arch. Campbell, of Lanark township, and was born forty-one years ago on the farm now occupied by Mr. John Ramsbottom, jr. Six brothers - John, Andrew, Duncan, David, Archibald and William - and three sisters - Mrs. John McDonald and Mrs. John Somerville, jr., of Lanark township, and Mrs. Richard Stead, of Cartwright, Man., survive him. His early boyhood days were spent at the school near his home and his education was finished by a course in the Lanark village public school. On leaving school he went to work with his brother, William, who was then running a hub and spoke factory at Stittsville. After working there for some time he returned here, his father having purchased the lot and erected the shingle and planing mill formerly operated by Mr. Arch. Affleck. His brother, William, had charge of the mill for several years, when it was sold to Mr. Robt. Lawson, from whom it was subsequently purchased by deceased. He operated it for a time, and eleven years ago sold it to Mr. Arch. Affleck. He then embarked in the furniture business, beginning on a small scale in a building adjoining his residence. The venture proved successful and his trade increased so rapidly that he soon required larger quarters. He then purchased from Mr. Arch. Daron the large shop on Main street, where he had built up a most successful business for himself. Strange to say, he never served an apprenticeship and yet was a skilled mechanic. He manufactured a high-grade of furniture and carried a heavy and well-assorted stock. This, with his shrewd, careful business talent, brought him a large trade. He was keen to do business, prompt to the minute in the fulfillment of all agreements, and a pleasant man to deal with. Nineteen years ago he was married to Miss Lizzie McKerracher, of Bathurst, and she now mourns an irreparable loss. Three sons, John, Maynard and Wilmur, and one daughter, Lila, are deprived of the care and guidance of a loving father. The eldest son is but sixteen years of age, while Wilmur, the youngest of the family, is nine years old. Deceased was a great lover of home and took special pleasure in his family, on which account the bereavement will be the more severe to his wife and children. Mrs. Campbell, who attended her husband almost constantly during his illness before he was removed to the hospital and who was with him during the last two days of his life, is prostrated with grief and fatigue, but kind and sympathetic hands will be held out helpfully to her as she wades through the deep waters of affliction. The whole community sympathize with her and the family in their bereavement. The funeral took place on Saturday afternoon at one o'clock, the services at the house being conducted by the deceased's pastor, Rev. D.M. Buchanan. The text chosen was John XIV: 18 - "I will not leave you comfortless, I will come to you" - and Mr. Buchanan's remarks were well calculated to soothe the grief and sorrow of the mourning friends. After the services an opportunity was given to all to look for the last time upon the familiar countenance of their departed friend, when the casket containing his remains was carried from the house to the hearse at the door by Messrs. D. McKerracher and R. Burris and deceased's four brothers, Andrew, Archibald, Duncan and David. Then began the solemn march to the village cemetery, where all that was earthly of him was confined to the silence of the tomb - the closing scene of a life which, a few weeks ago, was full of promise of usefulness to the community and pleasure and happiness to his family.

11180	The text at her funeral was Revelations xiv-13. "And I heard a voice from Heaven saying unto me: ' Write: Blessed are they which die in the Lord from henceforth; yea, sayeth the spirit, that they may rest from their labors; and their works do follow them.'" Elizabeth, daughter of Paul and Eleanor Magruder Hagerty, was born between Jun 27, 1795 in Virginia. Her father died in 1805 in Hardy County, Virginia, having been disabled in the Revolutionary War. Her mother remarried to Vincent Williams on 4 Nov. 1809 in Hardy County. When she died in 1821, her will mentioned her daughter, Elizabeth Hilton of Ohio, Elizabeth died between Oct. 13th and Dec 31st, 1836 in Ohio. note - Hardy County is in present day West Virginia	Hagerty, Elizabeth (I31792)
11181	The tombstone inscription states that she died on June 4, however, the church register states that she died on August 3 1899 and was buried on the 4th of August. There is also considerable doubt about the accuracy of the age at time of death (45 years) engraved on the tombstone. She and her husband Thomas Evans are recorded on the 1852 Census of Canada, with her age at next birthday (1853) being 23 years, and on the 1871 Census of Canada, with Sydney's age in 1871 given as 42 years. Together, these suggest a birth year of 1830.	Moore, Isabella Maria sydney (I35175)
11182	The village of Bryson in Quebec was named after John Bryson and incorporated in 1873. A fire in 1914 heavily damaged the village which then lay dormant for ten years. John was a Conservative Member of Parliament for Pontiac and served between 1882 to 1891 and then again between 1892 until his death in 1896. Together with his brother he formed the firm of J. and G. Bryson.	Bryson, John W. M. P. (I8415)

Elizabeth Maxwell McIlroy was the daughter of Captain John Maxwell (1739-1828). She was the niece of General William Maxwell (1733-1796), Revolutionary War Continental Army Brigadier General. During the American Revolution, he led the 2nd New Jersey Regiment. Among his many actions, he fought in the Battle of Newtown and was regarded by General George Washington as one of the best battlefield commanders of the American forces; Find A Grave Memorial# 3642. TRIBUTE TO THE GENERAL FRELINGHUYSEN CHAPTER OF THE DAUGHTERS OF THE AMERICAN REVOLUTION: In 1896, it became known that a real live daughter was to become a member of the chapter: Miss Elizabeth McIlroy, daughter of William McIlroy, a Soldier of the American Revolution. She lived to be more than 100 years old, but died soon after having been made a member of the Chapter. Mary McIlroy Kinney married William C. Kinney and is most likely buried in the Thatcher Cemetery with her husband. This cemetery is located on the southerly side of the Old Edison Road about 0.4 mile west of the junction of that road with the Broadway-Asbury Road, the junction being 1 mile south of Route 24 and almost opposite the Broadway Grange Hall. The old stone church is a complete ruin with a tree growing through its roof. The cemetery is now part of a hillside pasture and is fast disappearing as stone after stone in knocked down and broken. Several of those still remaining are badly weathered. In addition to those listed there were four unmarked field stones which were still in place and there had probably been a number more of the same which have suffered the same fate as the regular headstones.

11184	The year of birth is speculative, based on his age at death (40, as recorded on the headstone) in the first half of 1864. Other records indicate he was a few years older at the time of death. The 1851/52 census suggests he was born about 1822, and the 1861 census suggests he was born about 1819.	Jacobs, Joseph (I29950)

She was educated in Pembroke and finished her education at Bransom Hall in Toronto. She then attended a Commercial College in Ottawa and worked at the Metropolitan Life Company in Ottawa for 12 years until her marriage in 1937 when, as was then the practice, she was forced to quit her job.

Obituary
World War II veteran Ed Scott died Oct 28
Phillip Ambroziak, Associate editor
Almonte resident and World War II veteran Ed Scott will be remembered for both his heroics and his humanity. Mr. Scott, a lifelong resident of Almonte, died at his home on Malcolm Street Oct 28. He was 85.
"He was just a super guy," remarked fellow WW ll veteran and Almonte resident J.C. Smithson. "I knew him from day one. from school days. We went to public school and high school together, then when the war came along, we both left Almonte."
While in the military, Mr Scott was a member of the Stormont, Dundas and Glengarry Highlanders, which in turn was part of the ninth Canadian Infantry Brigade. This allegiance resulted in the young soldier seeing action overseas. According to documentation provided to the Gazette by Smithson, the boat carrying Mr. Scott sailed June 4, 1944 (D-Day) from England to France. Come January 12, 1945 and with snow on the ground, wartime action saw a German patrol; camouflaged in white suits, get too close to an "A" Company platoon, Ed challenged the first figure he saw, eventually shooting him in the head. This occurred around 5:45 a.m.
"They would use various passwords, and at this particular time the password was 'big dick' " Smithson said. "When Eddy asked this fellow for the password and didn't hear 'big dick', he shot him between the eyes."
The alarm brought up the rest of the platoon and they engaged the Germans. Private Scott's shot had killed the officer. It was this incident that earned Mr Scott the prestigious Military Medal. Shortly after receiving the medal, Mr. Scott much correspondence from military dignitaries, including then Governor General Vincent Massey.
"May I congratulate you very warmly indeed on the decoration which you have been awarded." Massey wrote in a letter addressed to Scott. "We are all proud that such fine service as you have given has thus been recognized. With all good wishes in which Mrs Massey joins."
Smithson said that, from what he knew of Mr Scott's personality back then, he would have been a great asset to any and all wartime battles he may of been a part of.
"He was a fast moving fellow who never sat around and did nothing - he was very active." Smithson explained. "He would do anything for his buddies or his fellow man, so I can fully understand why he did hold back during that charge."

Picture

Even when they were boys, Smithson recalled quite a bit of excitement surrounding the things Mr Scott did.
"He was a normal school boy, but a bit gung ho" he stated." He never backed down from too much. I remember when we were in high school; my family was not well enough off for me to have a bicycle, but Eddy had a little bicycle with no fenders. I'd ride on the cross bar and he'd take from the high school, across town and down the Bay hill, which at that time was not paved. I was picking sand out of my teeth a lot back then, but at least I had a ride and didn't have to walk all the way home. He was such a great guy."
Following his return from the war, Mr Scott and his brother Arthur (Dinty) purchased and operated the Superior Restaurant.
"They operated the restaurant for a number of years and did a good job with it" Smithson said. "Their favourite special for us young fellows was the chocolate milkshake. Following his funeral and the gathering at the cemetery, many of us gathered at the superior to talk about Eddy and old times."
"The last time I saw Eddy before the war was probably in early December of 1840," he said. "I spent my last visit before I went overseas at the Superior, having a coke with Eddy and another friend, George Jackman, George was sent to Japan and ended up a prisoner and was executed. His family never really found out what exactly had happened."
Mr Scott had planned to attend this thursday's Remembrance Day ceremony in Almonte, but now his memory will be in the for front of the minds on many on hand to observe Nov 11.
"Ed Scott was a very fine citizen, a great guy who loved to fish and boat, and who had a cottage at White Lake," Smithson recalled. "He really enjoyed getting away and simply enjoying that relaxing lifestyle."
Mr Scott was predeceased by his wife Una Hazel Jelly and his brothers Arthur and Bethune Scott. He is survived by his nephew David (Barbara) Scott, Owen (Sharon) Jelly and rich (Marg) Morgan; nieces Lynn (Jack) Cullen, Judy (Gilles) Belanger, Jan (Les) Reynolds; many great-nephews and great-nieces and cousins.
Visitation and funeral were held at the Kerry funeral Home Oct 30. Rev Heather Kinkaid officiated. Interment was at the Auld Kirk Cemetery.

Beloved husband of the late Una Hazel Jelly. Dear Uncle of David (Barbara) Scott, Lynn (Jack) Cullen, Judy (Gilles) Belanger, Own (Sharon) Jelly, Jan (Les) Reynolds and Rich (Marg) Morgan. Fondly remembered by his many great-nieces and great-nephews, cousins and many friends. Predeceased by his brothers Arthur (Dinty) and Bethune. Visitation and funeral services took place at Kerry Funeral Home, Almonte on Saturday October 30, 2004. Interment at the Auld Kirk Cemetery.

Ed was a veteran of W.W.II and a proud member of the S.D.&G. Highlanders. A recipient of the Military Medal, he served his country with pride as a member of the landing force on Juno Beach, June 6, 1844.

The family would like to thank friends and neighbours who particularly over the past six years, since Una's death, shared their companionship and company with Ed. Special thanks to Elford Giles, Alan Cochran and Linda and Lindsay Thomas without whom Ed could not have fulfilled his wish to remain in his home. You truly demonstrate the qualities of small town living; the reason Ed was proud to call Almonte his home for 85 years.

?b?Carnochan?/b? - At his residence 93 Glen Avenue, on Wednesday, Feb. 28th. 1934, John Carnochan, beloved husband of Jennie Campbell, in his 79th year. Funeral service at the above address on Friday, March 2nd, at 2:30pm Thence to Pinecrest vault. Interment at the Auld Kirk cemetery, Almonte, in the spring.

?b?Obituary Mr John Carnochan?/b?
Suddenly stricken on Saturday morning, at 7.30 o'clock at his home, 93 Glen Avenue, Ottawa, and unconscious since then, John Carnochan, one of the best known residents of Ottawa, former alderman for five years representing Capital Ward, and for many years engaged in the roofing business in Ottawa, died Tuesday.
There were few residents more familiar to the people of Ottawa than Mr Carnochan, and he was particularly well known in civic circles. News of his death will be received with sincere regret. Always enjoying the best of health, he had been active and around up to the time of his seizure. He was in his 79th year.
Mr Carnochan was born in Scotland, his father being John Carnochan, a sea captain who sailed between Halifax and the Old Country. He came to Canada as a boy of about nine with his parents, and the family settled in Lombardy, about eight miles from Smiths Falls, on a farm. He lived for a time in Almonte, where he was telegraph operator at the C.P.R. station. As a young man Mr Carnochan went to Montreal, where he was in the roofing business for a time before moving to Ottawa and for 38 years he was engaged in the same occupation in the Capital.

The sad news of the death of Mrs. W.J. Baird came as a shock to this community on Saturday morning last when it was learned that she had passed away peacefully at 5:30 that morning in the Ottawa Civic Hospital where she had been a patient for 4 weeks.

The serious illness of Mr. James W. Campbell was a matter of concern to all our citizens, and when on Tuesday morning of last week Mrs. Campbell was called to Montreal, whither her husband had been taken for hospital treatment, there spread the impression that his recovery could not be looked for. On Wednesday evening a telegram was received conveying the sad intelligence that the doctors in the hospital gave him only two hours more to live. This was a preparation for the telegram received on Thursday morning, announcing that his death occurred at half-past eleven o'clock on Wednesday night. Mr. Campbell entered Victoria Hospital, in Montreal, on Monday, March 27th. Before going to the hospital he had been ill for four weeks, and twice in that time his life was despaired of. But he gained strength rapidly, and was doing as well as could be expected until a day or two before his removal to the hospital. To the friends who called on him the day before he was taken to Montreal he appeared to be in the best of spirits and expressed his confidence that he would soon return in better health. No doubt his cheerfulness enabled him to prolong the struggle for life, but the Divinity that shapes our ends had decreed against his recovery. A week ago Friday last he underwent the first operation, which was highly succesfull and promised the most favorable results, but on Monday of last week he took a turn for the worse, requiring a second operation the following day. He suffered intensely after this operation, but remained conscious up to the last few minutes of his life. Characteristic of his business-like turn of mind was his action in settling all his bills with the hospital authorities a few hours before his death. Mr. James Deachman, who accompanied him to Montreal, was with him until the end. His remains were brought home on Thursday night.

Deceased was a son of the late Arch. Campbell, of Lanark township, and was born forty-one years ago on the farm now occupied by Mr. John Ramsbottom, jr. Six brothers - John, Andrew, Duncan, David, Archibald and William - and three sisters - Mrs. John McDonald and Mrs. John Somerville, jr., of Lanark township, and Mrs. Richard Stead, of Cartwright, Man., survive him. His early boyhood days were spent at the school near his home and his education was finished by a course in the Lanark village public school. On leaving school he went to work with his brother, William, who was then running a hub and spoke factory at Stittsville. After working there for some time he returned here, his father having purchased the lot and erected the shingle and planing mill formerly operated by Mr. Arch. Affleck. His brother, William, had charge of the mill for several years, when it was sold to Mr. Robt. Lawson, from whom it was subsequently purchased by deceased. He operated it for a time, and eleven years ago sold it to Mr. Arch. Affleck. He then embarked in the furniture business, beginning on a small scale in a building adjoining his residence. The venture proved successful and his trade increased so rapidly that he soon required larger quarters. He then purchased from Mr. Arch. Daron the large shop on Main street, where he had built up a most successful business for himself. Strange to say, he never served an apprenticeship and yet was a skilled mechanic. He manufactured a high-grade of furniture and carried a heavy and well-assorted stock. This, with his shrewd, careful business talent, brought him a large trade. He was keen to do business, prompt to the minute in the fulfillment of all agreements, and a pleasant man to deal with.

Nineteen years ago he was married to Miss Lizzie McKerracher, of Bathurst, and she now mourns an irreparable loss. Three sons, John, Maynard and Wilmur, and one daughter, Lila, are deprived of the care and guidance of a loving father. The eldest son is but sixteen years of age, while Wilmur, the youngest of the family, is nine years old. Deceased was a great lover of home and took special pleasure in his family, on which account the bereavement will be the more severe to his wife and children. Mrs. Campbell, who attended her husband almost constantly during his illness before he was removed to the hospital and who was with him during the last two days of his life, is prostrated with grief and fatigue, but kind and sympathetic hands will be held out helpfully to her as she wades through the deep waters of affliction. The whole community sympathize with her and the family in their bereavement.

The funeral took place on Saturday afternoon at one o'clock, the services at the house being conducted by the deceased's pastor, Rev. D.M. Buchanan. The text chosen was John XIV: 18 - "I will not leave you comfortless, I will come to you" - and Mr. Buchanan's remarks were well calculated to soothe the grief and sorrow of the mourning friends. After the services an opportunity was given to all to look for the last time upon the familiar countenance of their departed friend, when the casket containing his remains was carried from the house to the hearse at the door by Messrs. D. McKerracher and R. Burris and deceased's four brothers, Andrew, Archibald, Duncan and David. Then began the solemn march to the village cemetery, where all that was earthly of him was confined to the silence of the tomb - the closing scene of a life which, a few weeks ago, was full of promise of usefulness to the community and pleasure and happiness to his family.

The tombstone inscription states that she died on June 4, however, the church register states that she died on August 3 1899 and was buried on the 4th of August.

There is also considerable doubt about the accuracy of the age at time of death (45 years) engraved on the tombstone. She and her husband Thomas Evans are recorded on the 1852 Census of Canada, with her age at next birthday (1853) being 23 years, and on the 1871 Census of Canada, with Sydney's age in 1871 given as 42 years. Together, these suggest a birth year of 1830.

TRIBUTE TO THE GENERAL FRELINGHUYSEN CHAPTER OF THE DAUGHTERS OF THE AMERICAN REVOLUTION: In 1896, it became known that a real live daughter was to become a member of the chapter: Miss Elizabeth McIlroy, daughter of William McIlroy, a Soldier of the American Revolution. She lived to be more than 100 years old, but died soon after having been made a member of the Chapter.
Mary McIlroy Kinney married William C. Kinney and is most likely buried in the Thatcher Cemetery with her husband. This cemetery is located on the southerly side of the Old Edison Road about 0.4 mile west of the junction of that road with the Broadway-Asbury Road, the junction being 1 mile south of Route 24 and almost opposite the Broadway Grange Hall. The old stone church is a complete ruin with a tree growing through its roof. The cemetery is now part of a hillside pasture and is fast disappearing as stone after stone in knocked down and broken. Several of those still remaining are badly weathered. In addition to those listed there were four unmarked field stones which
were still in place and there had probably been a number more of the same which have suffered the same fate as the regular headstones. William C. Kinney d.Feb 24 1846,age 67 yrs (William C. Kinney tombstone still legible)

The year of birth is speculative, based on his age at death (40, as recorded on the headstone) in the first half of 1864.
Other records indicate he was a few years older at the time of death. The 1851/52 census suggests he was born about 1822, and the 1861 census suggests he was born about 1819.

company which made appliances. She was educated in Pembroke and finished her education at Bransom
Hall in Toronto. She then attended a Commercial College in Ottawa and worked at the Metropolitan Life

There are no birth or death records for this set of twins but family folklore suggest that they were born and died in Ramsay Township on the newly established homestead and were buried under a Oak tree on the property. It is also possible that youngest daughter at the time of arriving in Canada Elisabeth, born in Scotland in 1820 and died as a young child is also buried in the same location. This was a common practise as there were no cemeteries established at this time.
