J.A. Teskey
A man whose life story is inseparably entwined with the history of Ramsay passed to his eternal reward early Tuesday morning when Mr J. A. Teskey answered the call of his Creator. Mr Teskey had been in rather poor health for some years but was not taken seriously ill until some three weeks ago. John Adam Teskey was born at Appleton in 1837 a son of the late Robert Teskey, who was one of the pioneer settlers of Ramsay. Upon his father's death he succeeded to his business interests and for many years was identified with the woolen and agricultural interests of Appleton. In this work his brother Rufus was associated with him. Some years ago he sold out his woolen business to Mr Caldwell and about one year ago, having disposed of his farm to Mr Spiers, moved to Almonte where he has since resided. He is survived by his wife (formerly Miss Giles of Brockville) one son, Albert E., in Winnipeg, and one daughter, Mrs W. West, Almonte. Two brothers ? Rufus of Toronto, and R.A. of Alberta ? and three sisters ? Mrs Bredin of Winnipeg, Mrs (Dr) Giles and Mrs Deacon of Brockville. In politics Mr Teskey was a consistent supporter of the Conservative party, and was a strength to his party in many campaigns. In religion he was a Methodist, and was a staunch supporter of temperance and moral reform. Deceases carried to the tomb the accumulated respect of many years of public and private citizenship.

John married Sarah Giles on 22 Sep 1863 in Leeds and Grenville United Counties, Ontario, Canada. Sarah (daughter of William Godkin Giles and Sarah Richards) was born on 10 Apr 1833 in Athens, Leeds and Grenville United Counties, Ontario, Canada; died on 20 Apr 1909 in Almonte, Lanark County, Ontario, Canada; was buried in Auld Kirk Cemetery, Ramsay, Mississippi Mills, Lanark County, Ontario, Canada.

Mrs W. West Is Widely Mourned
Death Calls Esteemed Almonte Lady Following Lengthy Illness
The funeral of Ethel Teskey, wife of Wesley West, who died at her home on Union Street, on Wednesday, after an illness of over two years, took place on Friday, Dec 14. Mrs West was the only surviving daughter of the late John Adam Teskey, owner of the Appleton Woollen Mills. Her great-grandfather John Teskey, came from County Limerick in Ireland, about 1819, and settled on a farm on the 11th line of Ramsay near Appleton. Her mother, Sarah Giles came from Athens, where her family had settled about 1811, having come from Ireland. Born in Appleton on Dec 7, 1873, Mrs West attended the Appleton school as a child and later the Carleton Place High School and Ontario Ladies' College, Whitby, where she graduated as gold medallist in elocution, in which field she displayed rare talent throughout life. She was married on Sept 26th, 1900, to Wesley West, and came to Almonte, where she had since resided. Surviving are her husband, Wesley West; six children: Muriel (Mrs R.C. MacFarlane) Winnipeg; Kathleen (Mrs J.C. Stevenson) Owen Sound; Edith of the Perth Collegiate Staff; Gerald, student at Clarkson School of Technology, New York State; Jack and Orrie at home: and a brother Albert, of Winnipeg. After a private service at the home a public service was held in Trinity United Church, where Mrs West was a member and faithful worker in various departments. Many friends and acquaintances were present to show respect to one who had always been interested in affairs of the community. Rev Andrew McLauchlin, B.A., B.D., her minister, spoke from the text, "A Virtuous Women." Those who know her best felt that Mr McLauchlin's opening sentence was very appropriate. He said, "I feel as though I had listened to the finale of a beautiful musical composition." The pastor paid tribute to the cheerfulness and Christian faith that had been uppermost at all time and recounted some of the services she had rendered to the church and community interest, especially in connection with Women's Missionary Society and Ladies' Aid as secretary of the Alexandra Club and patroness of the N.L.A.S. Fair. Interment was at the Auld Kirk cemetery on the 8th line of Ramsay. Rev C.D. McLellan, B.A., B.D., of Bethany United Church assisted at both the church and graveside services. The pallbearers were T.A. Thompson, M.P., P.A. Grieg, J.S. Hudson, R.A. Jamieson, W.A. Jamieson, all of Almonte and Robt Baird of Appleton. The A.H.S. cadets formed a guard of honour and marched with the funeral procession from the house. There were floral tributes from The Lanark and Carleton County Telephone Co., The Ladies' Aid and Missionary Society of Trinity United Church, the officers of the Girl Guides and the 1st Ranger Company. The Perth Collegiate Institute staff; the staff and pupils of the Almonte High School; the staff of Mr West's store and from many relatives and friends.
