Obit. ? The Late William Gilmour
With sincere regret we have this week to record the death of one of the oldest and most highly esteemed residents of this town, in the person of Mr Wm Gilmour. The sad event took place at his home here last Thursday in the 69th year of his age, after an illness of about a week from pleurisy. Deceased was one of the best known men in the county and a generation ago was one of Ramsay's leading citizens. He was born in Glasgow, Scotland, February 2nd, 1821, and when an infant six weeks old his parents (the late Allan Gilmour and wife) emigrated to Canada. They settled the same year of the farm in Ramsay now owned and occupied by Mr E. Tierney, and there the subject of this sketch lived continuously for over sixty-four years. He had an opportunity of experiencing the hardships incident to the early settlement of this county, as well as the pleasure of seeing the primeval forest make way for the prosperous towns, villages and farms that are now to be found throughout this section. When but twelve years of age he did his share in clearing the land and assisting his parents in the work of tilling the soil, whereby they secured a livelihood. At that time education was almost out of the question. The school (!) then in use was a small log building that stood on what is now our Bridge street, opposite Mr Robertson's store; and the roads leading to it were paths through the bush ? "blazed roads," as they were called. Later on what was known as "Gemmill's school" was established, and there Mr Gilmour received what little education he got. However, he made good use of his spare time at home, and in this way picked up knowledge that proved very useful to him in after life. He filled the important office of collector of taxes for the township before Almonte was made a separate municipality; was for many years a constable; and from about the year 1860 till his death he was the trusted agent of Major (now Lieut,-Col.) Gemmill. He was also librarian of the Ramsay Library and Mechanics' Institute for a good many years. He was thoroughly honourable in his dealings, and won an enviable reputation among his fellows. In 1844 he married Ellen Burns, Who survives him. Seven children were born to them, five of whom are living, viz.: Mrs Peter Naismith, Ramsay; Allan W. Gilmour, Braeside; Robert, of this town; William, of Ramsay; and James B., now in Dakota. The funeral took place on Saturday afternoon, to the eighth line cemetery, and was very largely attended, old residents from all parts of the county being present to pay the last tribute of respect to their departed friend. The mourning widow and family have our sympathy in their bereavement.

"The Late Allan Gilmour"
It becomes our duty this week to chronicle the death of one of the earliest inhabitants of this neighbourhood in the person of Mr. Allan Gilmour, who passed away last Thursday, aged 74 years. His system had been gradually wearing out for six months past ? a general breakup. Mr. Gilmour's parents, the late Allan Gilmour and wife, came to Canada from Scotland with the early Settlers of 1821, and less than a year after their arrival here deceased was born on the lot on which he lived all his life and on which he died ? the corner lot on the 9th Line of Ramsay adjoining Col. Gemmill's property. He was therefore one of the very first children born in this vicinity, and saw the wonderful transformations that have taken place in the last three quarters of a century.
He was twice married ? first to Miss More, sister of Mr. James More of Ramsay by whom he had a family of seven children, who survive as follows:
Allan A. Gilmour of Renfrew;
John A,
William & Joseph Gilmour,
Mrs. James Townend and
Mrs. W.F. Peden, Almonte; and
Mrs. Wilson, Brockville.
Mrs. Gilmour died many years ago.
His second wife nee Miss Clarke of Packenham survives. The funeral took place on Saturday to the Eighth Line Cemetery when a large number of people turned out to pay the final tribute of respect to one who has so long been associated with the progress of this section.

The Late Mrs. Steele
The angel of death which hovers over humanity descended to this community last week and claimed the bright young life of Jessie Gilmour Naismith, beloved wife of Mr. Wm. Steele, of Claysmore, Alta., at the early age of forty-seven years. Deceased, who was the eldest daughter of the late Peter Naismith and Catherine Gilmour, was born in Ramsay township and spent her life until her marriage to Mr. Steele about nine years ago, when she went west to reside at Claysmore, Alta. About for years ago she was taken ill with a serious form of paralysis and came east to get the best medical attention and loving care but all was of no avail and death released her from all suffering on Friday. The late Mrs Steele was of a bright cheerful disposition, making the most of life although it had been darkened for years by suffering and affliction, all of which was borne with Christian patience and resignation. She leaves to mourn her husband (who was with her when she passed away), a little daughter, Kathleen, her mother, one sister and seven brothers. These are Margaret and Albert at home; Peter of Ramsay; Wm. of Denver, Col; Welland, of San Francisco, Cal.; John, Edmonton, Alta.; Jas, Heward, Sask,; Lawrence, of Morse, Sask., all of whom have the deepest sympathy of many friends in their sad bereavement. The funeral which took place from Mr. Albert Naismith's residence on the 9th line on Sunday afternoon, was very largely attended. The funeral services were conducted by Rev. Mr. Turner of Montreal, in the absence of Rev. S.G. Brown, interment being made in the 8th line cemetery.

Jessie married William Mostyn Steele in 1907. William was born in 1868 in Lanark County, Ontario, Canada; died on 14 Jul 1957 in Vermilion, Lloydminster Census Division, Alberta, Canada. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

? This community was suddenly overcast with gloom when the angel of death claimed the bright young life of Jean Carswell, second daughter of the late Peter Naismith of the 9th line Ramsay, at the early age of 37 years and 4 months. Deceased was of a king, cheerful disposition, making the most of life although at intervals for many years past it had been darkened by suffering and affliction, all of which had been borne with Christian patience and resignation.

Sudden Passing Of Tobe Naismith Widely Mourned
Death of Popular Citizen Comes As Great Shock To This District
Sad and sudden was the death this Thursday morning at the Rosamond Memorial Hospital of Lawrence Naismith, more familiarly known to his many friends at "Tobe." Mr Naismith had been indisposed for the last few weeks but was going about up to Monday afternoon when he took a turn for the worse and was confined to bed. By Tuesday noon his condition had grown so serious that he was rushed to the hospital and an Ottawa doctor was summoned to perform an emergency operation. This disclosed that Mr Naismith could not recover and the announcement came as a distinct shock to the whole town and district. There was no more active, cheerful or kindly man in Almonte than "Tobe" Naismith. His associations formed as representative in this district for General Motors Limited, of Oshawa, and a patron of sports and athletics brought him many contacts which added to his wide popularity. His passing is a great loss to a town which has suffered many similar losses in the last few years and which can ill afford the removal of such citizens.
An Active Life
The late Lawrence Naismith was born at the homestead, ninth line of Ramsay, of February 19th, 1879, and was 56 years old at the time of his sudden passing. He was a son of the late Peter Naismith and his wife, the former Catherine Gilmour, and attended school at Bennies Corners. Going West in 1898, Mr Naismith settled in Wawanesa, Man., where he operated an insurance business until 1908 when he moved to Morse, Sask. There he established a hardware, real estate and insurance business. While in Morse he served for some time as a member of the council and Board of Education, In 1922 Mr Naismith sold out his western interests and returned to the old home town of Almonte, where he formed a connection with General Motors and was a most successful representative up to the time of his death.
President Bowling Club
Deceased was a member of Bethany United Church and a life member of Morse Lodge, A.F & A.M. and a member of Granite Chapter No 61. Since coming to Almonte he served on the Board of Education and several other bodies. He was president of the Lawn Bowling Club at the time of his death and was an enthusiastic supporter of all lines of sport, especially baseball and hockey. The late Mr Naismith leaves a wife, formerly Miss Helen Snedden of Ramsay, and a daughter Miss Helen of Almonte. Brothers and sisters surviving are Peter of Almonte, Welland of Asparto, Cal; William of Denver, Col Jack and James in Saskatchewan and Albert and Margaret on the homestead. One brother Robert was killed in France during the war. Two sisters (Jessie) Mrs Wm Steele and Jean died a number of years ago. The funeral will be held Saturday afternoon at two o'clock from his late residence, Church street, to the Auld Kirk Cemetery, under the auspices of Morse Lodge A.F. & A.M. Morse, Sask. Officers of Mississippi Lodge, Almonte, will have charge. The sympathy of a host of friends in Almonte and district goes out to the bereaved wife and daughters.

Great Tribute Paid Ramsay Farmer At His Funeral Sunday Afternoon
This part of Lanark County lost one of its most popular and successful citizens on Friday, May 9th, in the death of Albert George Naismith who died in the Rosamond Memorial Hospital, in his 58th year, after a short illness. Mr Naismith was born on the homestead, Ninth Line of Ramsay, in sight of Almonte, a son of the late Peter Naismith and his wife, Catherine Gilmour. A short time after his father's death, he acquired the farm which is a very good one and which he continued to improve in every day during his all too short lifetime. Thirty-two years ago he married Olive May Paul who survives together with two sons and two daughters, namely, Robert of Ramsay, William at home; Mrs Wm Toop (Elsie) of Ottawa and Mrs William Endersby (Betty) of Toronto. In his own immediate family there are eight ? James of Vermillion, Alberta; Welland of Esparato, Calf.; John of Calgary; Miss Margaret at home. Deceased ? Peter, Lawrence (Tobe) Jessie (Mrs Wm Steele) and Jean. Mr Naismith's death came as a great shock and sorrow to a wide circle of friends. Whether he felt well during the winter no one knows outside of his immediate family because he wasn't a complainer. He was the jolly, jaunty type of man whom everyone likes to meet, especially those who felt down a little themselves. He was always cheerful, well informed and a good conversationalist. He knew his business as a dairy farmer, specializing in Ayshires, and it was a pleasure to hear him talk on the subject of agriculture in which he was most interested. Some years ago, in addition to running his farm with which the two boys were associated, "Ab" decided to take on the district agency for the Massey-Harris Co. His warehouse was next the Gazette office and the staff of this newspaper never had a better of more congenial neighbour. He was eminently successful in his work as an agent but his heart was in the farm. he had it in mind to turn the agency over the elder boy an when he declared he would rather farm Albert gave up the sales business with no regret at all. He took little active interest in public or semi public affairs. His heart was at home because he was a great family man. He loved to talk with the boys and girls of the immediate circle and he welcomed the friends who passed the gate and traversed the one lane up to his home. He was a director of North Lanark Agricultural Society for a few years but outside of that he attended strictly to his own affairs. He was Conservative in politics. The funeral of the late Mr Naismith, held last Sunday afternoon was one of the largest ever seen in Lanark County. When the head of the cortege reached the turn to the Auld Kirk Cemetery, at MacDonald's service station, the tail of the sad procession was still coming out his gate about two miles distant. Services were conducted at the home and graveside by Rev H.C. Wolfraim, pastor of the Almonte United Church. Pallbearers were Robt Toshack, Jas Steele, Peter Syme, Melville Paul, Clifford Rivington and Charles Black, the latter from Carleton Place. As might be expected, there was a profusion of floral offerings from organizations and individuals. It is no exaggeration to say that the death of Albert Naismith at a comparatively early age is one of those sad things that mortals have to contend with in this strange life. He was full of energy, cheerfulness and good-fellowship and had attained a position in his career where he could sit back and rest on the oars while the boys carried on. One of them was on a farm on his own a short distance away and the other was at home. But this rest after toll was not to be. Mr Naismith will be sorely missed by all who knew him. There were many at the funeral from adjacent towns and Ottawa, and Mr and Mrs Sam McKee and son, Don Don McKee and Mrs Porterfield from Toronto.

Albert married Olive May Paul in 1919. Olive (daughter of William Paul and Christena Porterfield) was born on 31 May 1895 in Ramsay Township, Lanark County, Ontario, Canada; died on 11 Feb 1985 in Almonte, Lanark County, Ontario, Canada; was buried in Auld Kirk Cemetery, Ramsay, Mississippi Mills, Lanark County, Ontario, Canada.

The sympathy for Mr and Mrs Andrew Dunlop aroused by the serious illness of their daughter, Delice Bennett, was deepened when she succumbed to the disease and passed away on Friday of last week.
