Excerpts from The Calgary Weekly Herald, November 7, 1901:

DIED--At the general hospital, Calgary, on Wednesday, October 30, 1901, Millie, the beloved wife of Thomas Jackson.
---
One of the most impressive funerals ever held in Calgary was that of the late Mrs. Jackson on Sunday afternoon. The Methodist church was filled on the sad occasion and the solemn service was conducted by the Rev. Fred Langford, who still shows traces of his long illness, which, as our readers know was of the same character as that which carried off Mrs. Jackson leaving six young children motherless. During the service Messrs. Tood, Walt and McAra sang a touching trio "Gone to Her Rest."

Amelia married Thomas Edgar Jackson in 1894. Thomas (son of Abram Jackson and Mary James) was born on 4 Feb 1867 in Ontario, Canada; died on 31 Jul 1929 in Calgary, Calgary Census Division, Alberta, Canada; was buried in Union Cemetery, Calgary, Calgary Census Division, Alberta, Canada.
