Gahan, P.	MAN FOUND DYING - BY THE G. T. R. TRACKS NEAR COLLINS’ BAY - He Died Shortly After Being Found - His Name is P. Gahan, But His Home is Not Known. Daily Whig, April 19^th - With his skull fractured in several places, his right hand mangled, and his face badly bruised, the body of a man named P. Gahan, is at Corbett’s undertaking morgue, waiting to be claimed. The body was found at six o’clock, this morning, about three miles west of Collins Bay by the conductor of an east-bound freight train, lying beside the track. He was still breathing, but unconscious. He was carefully lifted to the caboose of the freight and brought to the outer station, where Corbett’s ambulance removed the remains to the morgue. He died before reaching the station. The only way he could be identified was by two empty pay envelopes which he had in his pocket. One was for an amount of $2.60 and had the number 180 in green print across the top. The other envelope was for $4.60 and had the number 211 in the same color of ink. There is reason to believe that he belongs to Montreal, as the name of the tailor who made the coat was W. W. Harrington, Montreal. He had two pairs of trousers on when found, as well as a pair of overalls. He wore gaiter boots and this points to the fact that he might have been a brakeman, as they are required to wear gaiters. He wore a grey flannel shirt and red tie, with the name of a firm in Buffalo on the inside. H had a corduroy vest which had red dots in it. He had a dark peaked cap on with a woollen lining. He was a man of about forty-five years of age, about six feet tall and would weigh about 175 pounds. He was light complexioned, hair slightly turned and wore a black moustache. His skull was fractured in several places at the back of his head, while over his right eye is a bad gash. His upper teeth chewed away part of his lower lip and his face is badly bruised. The fingers of his right hand were chewed off. The man is evidently a Roman Catholic by the symbols he carried around his neck, fastened to a string. Coroner Dr. A. E. Ross was summoned, but unless further particulars are forthcoming an inquest will not be held. The supposition that he may be a railroad man is upset by the fact that the Grand Trunk does not pay with envelopes, which are not stamped by the name of the company. When found his hands were covered with grease and oil, as though he might have been a fireman or brakeman.	The Weekly British Whig Kingston Apr 20 1911
Galbraith, Earle B.	Pte Earle B. Galbraith. Numbered among those young soldiers from Lennox and Addington who recently paid the gold of life for Canada’s safety was Pte. Earle B. Galbraith, second son of Mr. and Mrs. Robert Galbraith, Varty Lake. Earle was wounded in the right shoulder by gun-shot on October 30^th 1917 and died of wounds three days later, in the forty-fourth Clearing Station, France. Earle, or “Gal” was widely known throughout this County and in Kingston where he attended Queen’s University for four years. Born on the Galbraith farm which borders Varty Lake, he received his early education at Colebrook Public School, attended later, for five years, the high School at Newburgh, and the Napanee Collegiate for one year. From the latter institution he passed in 1912 with his Normal Entrance and matriculation Certificates. In the fall of 1913, he joined the Arts ’17 Class at Queen’s University and attended College till the early spring of 1917, when he enlisted in the Ammunition column then recruiting at Kingston. On reaching England two months later he was transferred to the Infantry branch of war service and first plunged into Europe’s blood-deluge towards the end of last July. Those people who knew Earle intimately, know that he was in every way, cast in Canadian manhood’s finest mould, that this sacrificing of his own promising future for the good of Canada is only one generous detail in the whole living of his generous life. Though always carefree and void of sterness there was no snivelling in his make-up - he smiled home in his letters out of the War - crucible of death, always with the true soldiers “Cheer-O” His parents, his sister Violet, and brother Percy at home, his sister, Mrs. Davidson, at Wilkie, Sask., and his brother Howard, of Napanee have the deep sympathy of every friend.	1917 Scrapbook Clipping

Gallagher - At South Fredericksburgh on Wednesday, March 27th, 1912, Mrs. James Gallagher, aged 61 years, 4 months, 9 days. James Gallagher and family of South Fredericksburgh, have lately been grievously afflicted in the death, first, of his eldest daughter, the amiable and very highly esteemed wife of George Loyst, Jr., then 18 days later, March 27th, in the passing away of her heart-stricken mother, and also in the sickness by scarlet fever of the second daughter, and the little grandchild, Elsie Loyst. The sympathy of the whole neighborhood is with the family in their distress and the wonder is how they will manage without Mrs. Gallagher for with seeming frail body, she was a very marvel of physical and mental energy. Of her it might be truly said: "Her price was above rubies. The heart of her husband safely trusted in her. She did him good and not evil all the days of her life. She looked well to the ways of her household, and ate not the bread of idleness." She was withal a good religious woman, and the family may have the comfort of feeling that her death was but birth to a higher life, the safe landing of the voyager on the farther shore, welcome rest for the zesty pilgrim in the Paradise of God.

Garrison, George	The Late George Garrison An Aged Resident of Varty Lake, Near Moscow Moscow, Nov. 10 – The funeral of the late George Garrison, who died on Friday, November 5^th, took place from his residence, Varty Lake, near Moscow, on Sunday, at one o’clock, Rev. J. Batstone, Yarker, conducting the services. Mr. Garrison was one of the oldest residents of the county, being in his eighty-eighth year, and had never had much sickness during his long life. Through the past summer he had been in poor health, suffering from stomach trouble, but had been able to do his own driving to the surrounding villages. Three weeks before his death he attended his granddaughter’s wedding, at Colebrooke, but afterwards grew weaker day by day, although retaining his mental powers until the last. Deceased was a descendant of the United Empire Loyalists. Five brothers lived in the United States, but after the war of independence, three of these, one being Mr. Garrison’s father, came to Canada and settled in Fredericksburgh. Deceased was born in 1822, on what is known as the Frettz farm near Hawley. Three years later his parents moved to the shores of Varty Lake, near Moscow, and were the first settlers in that vicinity. In the same year his father died, leaving a family of five boys and two girls, all of whom predeceased Mr. Garrison. It was on the land where his parents settled that the deceased grew to manhood, and spent his declining years, being a continuous resident for eighty-four years. He was a very energetic business man, a successful farmer and one of the first to start the cheese industry in the county, erecting a factory at Moscow, also investing in real estate to quite an extent. About twenty-five years ago he retired from active business life, but still clung to his old home on the farm. He was well known in his younger days as a dispenser of hospitality, his home being the centre of many merry social gatherings. Always good to the poor, he gave many men a start in business life and was not known to have an enemy. Although never connecting himself with any church, he in his declining days confessed his faith in God, and calmly and happily awaited death’s summons. In politics he was a liberal. Sixty-six years ago he married Mary Asselstine, eldest daughter of Jacob Asselstine, Moscow, also of United Empire Loyalist origin, who survives him. He also leaves two daughters, Mrs. F.S. Wartman and Mrs. A.C. Warner, and one son, C.N. Garrison, of Colebrooke, to mourn the death of a kind and noble father.	Nov 12 1909 Daily British Whig

Garrison, Stewart	Killed While Loading Logs - A shocking accident occurred in Samuel Asselstine's woods, near Morven, last Friday afternoon, in which Stewart Garrison, a young man of about thirty-five years of age, was almost instantly killed. The young man and his brother Charles were loading logs in the woods together, and were in the act of breaking a top log on the load. The log was difficult to raise and Stewart attempted to ease it with a hand spike, but in doing so the chain was loosened and slipped. Stewart attempted to get out of the way by stepping backwards, but his foot caught on a stick and he fell backwards, the log sliding swiftly down on top of him, crushing the lower portion of his skull. His brother, who had witnesses the sad accident, cried out for assistance, and when help arrived, in about five minutes time, he was found frantically kneeling in the snow holding his unconscious brother's bleeding head on his arm. The young man was picked up and as carefully as possible placed on Mr. Wm. H. Crabbe's sleigh and conveyed to the home of his father, Mr. John Garrison, Morven, but he never regained consciousness, dying in about twenty minutes from the time of the accident. Deceased was a very popular young man, liked by all who knew him. He was an active member of the Methodist church and for several terms filled the position of local president of the Christian Endeavor Society. Besides his brother Charles he has three other brothers, Gideon, Damon and Norman, and a sister, Miss Emma Garrison, a student at Albert College, Belleville. The sorrowful accident has cast a gloom over the whole neighborhood. The funeral took place Sunday afternoon, services being conducted in the White church, Morven, by the Rev. R. M. Pope. It was very largely attended.	Feb 12 1897 Napanee Beaver
Garrison, William Henry	A Sketch of the Late William Henry Garrison, Napanee Napanee Beaver William Henry Garrison was laid to rest on Sunday, July 15^th, 1923. His U.E.L. ancestors landed at Hay Bay and early removed to Plainfield in the county of Hastings. There the deceased was born eighty-six years ago. He married a quiet and devoted woman, Mary Jane Outwater. His outstanding characteristic was religion. By marriage a nephew to the great Bishop Richardson, he early eschewed evil; and in a great camp meeting under the preaching of Rev. Dr. Gardiner, who preached on ‘Will a man rob God?’ he was converted. He soon became superintendent of the Plainfield Sunday School, which office he held for twenty-nine years. He also assisted in organizing other schools. In his profession of carpenter and contractor, he built or rebuilt some twenty-six churches, including both churches at Plainfield, one at Eldorado and at Westneath, and the one at Point Petre. He removed to Napanee thirty-three years ago, becoming a member of Grace Church. He taught in the Sunday school, and helped organize a large class meeting. He has also been an efficient class-leader and helped often and in many places in the conduct of public worship. Always was he found in his place in the sanctuary and at the prayer service. To him religion was both a business and a hobby. He was unsparing in his condemnation of evil and wrong of every kind. He was a devout reader of the Bible, and a lover of all churches and christian people. Both in sickness and in health the name of Jesus was often on his lips. After only two weeks of illness and at a very ripe age, he passed to his reward. Surely he who so loves the sanctuary and so cultivated the life of the spirit, and so labored and rejoiced in erecting sanctuaries to the praise and worship of God, will be counted worthy of welcome in the upper and better sanctuary. On Sunday afternoon, at the home of his daughter, Mrs. F.L. Hooper, Thomas Street, a brief service was held and his body was interred in the beautiful Riverside cemetery. Among the devout people he will be most missed.	July 25 1923 Daily British Whig

Emma was born in Toronto township on Christmas Day, 1856. She was converted to God at a meeting she attended in Toronto, five or six years ago. She was mild and gentle in her disposition and manners, and beloved by her acquaintances. She caught a severe cold while staying a few weeks with a sister in Toronto. Returning home she only survived about four weeks. She seemed to melt away under the power of that fell destroyer, quick consumption, as snow under a June sun. But she was ready, washed in the blood of the Lamb. Her confidence in her Saviour was steadfast, and enabled her to triumph over death. Her soul was filled with joy when the last enemy was doing its work. What a cause for devout gratitude to God have her parents, who are seeking the heavenly city, that amidst the sorrow of earthly separation they can rejoice in the prospect of the companionship of the loved daughter, not dead, but gone before. May all the surviving brothers and sisters consecrate their lives to God, so that Bro. GeRill’s family may be united forever before the throne of God. [signed] G. W. Stevenson.

The subject of this memorial was the son of William and Isabella German. He was born in the township of South Fredericksburgh January 7^th 1867. He was a most promising young man and his life was without spot or blemish so far as human eye could judge. He was genial in his manner and a favourite with all who knew him and will be greatly missed in the circle in which he moved. He was converted to God about two weeks previous to his death in a revival meeting conducted by the writer. His short illness was marked with Christian patience and he was perfectly resigned to his Master's will. The day before his death he said to the writer, "Won't it be pleasant to meet with my Heavenly Father; yes and with my departed mother who is waiting and watching for me in glory." On Sunday, February 15th, his funeral took place when the writer tried to improve the sad and solemn occasion by addressing a large audience from the words, "Prepare to Meet Thy God," after which his mortal remains were laid to rest in the Adolphustown (**NOTE: Adolphustown has been crossed out, and Sillsville written in**) cemetery.

German, Margaret	On 11^th January, Mrs. Margaret German, of Fredericksburgh. Her maiden name was Smith, she was born in Fredericksburgh in 1793, married to Matthew German in 1812; and leaves eight children. Mrs. Margaret German’s maiden name was Smith. She was born in Fredericksburgh, Bay Quinty in 1793. Her parents were professors of religion and members of the Lutheran Church. They taught the subject of this notice the fear of the Lord in early youth. The effects of their instructions were seen in Margaret’s filial obedience – her steady habits and moral conduct from her childhood. She did not, however, experience a saving change of heart until some time after her marriage with Mr. Matthew German, which took place in 1812. Mrs. German united herself to the M.E. church, of which she continued a faithful member until her death. She was a help-mate to her husband as a class-leader, a parent and a Christian. She has left him, 8 children, a numerous circle of friends to mourn her absence. Mrs. German was taken ill – her sufferings were extreme until the day of her death. Mrs. German died on the 11^th of January, 1831. [abridged version] At Adolphustown, on the 11^th inst., Mrs. Margaret Smith German, wife of Mr. Matthew German, aged 37.	Sat.

The funeral will take place from his late residence, on Saturday afternoon, at 2.30 o’clock. Service at Grace Methodist Church, thence to Riverside cemetery. Obituary - Wilbur F. Gerow The tragic death of Mr. W.F. Gerow was a great shock to a large circle of friends and acquaintances. His name has been intimately associated with the dairying interests of this county for a great many years. He was a pioneer in the cheese industry and as a cheesemaker had few equals in the province. He was in charge of Excelsior Cheese Factory for the present season, and in the early morning of the 19th inst., gave the alarm of fire, and in a few minutes the building was enveloped in flames. He worked most energetically to save the contents and in a measure succeeded. He was missed for a time in the darkness and was then found lying upon some bedding which he himself had carried from the burning building and deposited on the roadside. He was removed to a neighboring residence where he passed away in a few minutes. Mr. Gerow had the enviable reputation of being a most conscientious good living man who had a kind word for everyone he met. H will be greatly missed in the business and social circles in which he moved, and particularly in the Masonic Order, where he has held many important offices. The love and esteem cherished for him by his brother Masons was amply testified by the beautiful floral tributes placed upon the casket, and the large number who turned out to his funeral on Saturday afternoon to pay respect to his memory. The church service was conducted in Grace Church, by Rev. M. Terrill, assisted by Rev. Mr. Coleman, Rev. Mr. Foster and Rev. Mr. Wilson. This was followed by the beautiful and impressive Masonic service upon the church lawn. To mourn his loss he left his widow and four sons, Frank Gerow, of Newburgh; Allan Gerow, of Tilsonburgh; Donald Gerow, of Buffalo, and Grant Gerow, of Rochester. Died After the Fire in House Near Factory W.F. Gerow Had Long Been Known in Cheese-Making Circles Napanee, April 20 – The news of the death of Wilbur Ferman Gerow was received in town yesterday, and was a distinct shock to all by whom he was known. He operated the cheese factory in North Fredericksburgh, known as No. 11, owned by a farmers’ stock company, and situated between Hay Bay and the Bay of Quinte. The factory had just been overhauled and put in repair for the season’s work. Mr. Gerow was boarding with the man who worked with him in the factory and was aroused about midnight to discover that the factory was on fire. He and his man did what they could to arrest the flames, but without avail, for the building was burned to the ground. Mr. Gerow became exhausted by his efforts and laid down upon his bed where after the elapse of some time it was discovered that he had passed away. The cause of death is said to have been heart failure. Deceased was in his seventy-second year. He was a well known figure on the streets of Napanee and highly respected by all who knew him. He has been connected with the cheese factory business for very many years and was in charge of the Palace Road factory, near which his house is situated, for a long time. He also managed the cheese factory at Newburgh for some time and that factory is now in charge of his son. Much sympathy is extended to his widow, who has been in poor health for years, also to the family in their bereavement. In religion Mr. Gerow was a Methodist. He was a member of the Oddfellows and was a very prominent Mason. The funeral will take place from his late residence, on Saturday afternoon, at 2:30 o’clock, services at Grace Methodist church, interment at Riverside cemetery.	1923 Scrapbook Clipping Apr 27 1923 Napanee Beaver Apr 20 1923 Daily British Whig

Gibbard, John	Death of John Gibbard, Esq. – Last Monday morning brought to a close the life of Napanee’s oldest citizen, in the person of John Gibbard, Esq., at the ripe old age of 94 years, 8 months and 21 days. The subject of this sketch was born at Wilton on August 6^th 1813, and was of English-Scotch descent. He remained at home with his mother until 18 years of age, obtaining such an early education as our country schools could then afford. His first earning, on a farm, the result of much hard work, amounted to $4.00 a month and board. The next year he received $5 per month He then apprenticed himself to a carpenter and joiner, with whom he worked for the next three years at $60.00 per year. He then branched out for himself and for the next two or three years was engaged in other parts of the country. It was on the last day of August, 1836, that he located in Napanee, and has been one of our well-known and enterprising citizens ever since. A small circumstance appears to have turned the scale about his residence here. He had been offered better terms by a builder in Percy township and had arranged to go there. He walked to the steamboat landing, where Deseronto now stands to meet his prospective employer, but found the boat had just gone, and there would be no other chance for a day or so. Disappointed, he retraced his steps to Napanee, engaged here, and had ever since loyally linked his destinies to those of this town. It was an important thing for Napanee that his lot was cast here. His first job here was putting the doors and windows in the new stone block in the Blewett building, now occupied by Mr. J. G. Oliver and Mrs. Knight. It was the first stone building erected in Napanee and is one of the oldest standing in the town. Some of Mr. Gibbard’s remembrances of Napanee as it was when he first settled here, will make interesting reading. It was then but a small and straggling village of a few wooden buildings. The only building north of Bridge street was the residence of Mr. John Benson, where Mr. John Thomson’s fine residence now stands. There was also a house on the corner where the Market Hotel sheds now stand. North and west of these places were wet and swampy. Where Mr. W. T. Gibbard’s residence now stands was a swamp, almost impassable. Dundas St., west of Mr. John Lowrys and Mrs. Davey’s corners, was low and swampy. There were several small stores, but none of them occupied more than one small room. There were no churches in Napanee then, or for some years after. A small square schoolhouse stood under the shadow of the large elm tree just where the embankment of the G. T. R. bridge now is on Dundas street. There the Rev. Saltern Givens began his first work as a Church of England missionary, and young John A. Macdonald (afterwards Sir John) was a member of the choir. Mr. Gibbard saw the building of the first Church o f England here, east of the Court House; he also assisted in the building of the old brick Wesleyan church in 1842, and of its successor, the Eastern Methodist church where Trinity church now stands; he also took a prominent part in erecting the old White church, and its successor, the present Western Methodist church,. He is the last one of the original official board. He well remembered when, in this county, there were more taverns than churches and schools, and more distilleries than mills, but as a temperance and church worker he has well done his share in bringing about a very important reformation. He was converted at a Methodist protracted meeting in 1837 and has been a staunch and reliable member of the Methodist church ever since. That denomination owes much to him in this locality. He was also for many years a member of the School Board and Town Council. Mr. Gibbard has always been a supporter of the Liberal party and though never a strong partisan, “you always knew where to find him.” Mr. Gibbard began business here in a very safe and modest way, and has always been a man of prudence and caution in business affairs. For some years he manufactured and sold nearly all the fanning mills in this county, and they were formerly much more important machines to our farmers than they now are. He gradually spread out more into building, contracting, and finally into the furniture business. He was really the founder of the present Gibbard Furniture Co., Limited, which has become the most important and best known of any in that line now in Ontario. Three times did he have the misfortune to be burned out. First in 1854, when nearly everything was lost and no insurance; then in 1862, when all was destroyed and the insurance only partially covered the loss, though in a little over two months he had the works rebuilt and in full operation again. The last serious fire, in 1892, nearly all will remember . The loss was very serious at that time, and Mr. Gibbard had grown old. It was therefore, decided to form a joint stock company, starting on a larger scale, with his only son, Mr. W. T. Gibbard, as business manager. Napanee today owes much of its present business standing and prosperity to the late John Gibbard Esq. His many friends throughout the town, county and province will learn with regret of his death. He leaves an only son, Mr. W. T. Gibbard, to mourn the loss of a kind and loving father. The funeral took place from his late residence on Tuesday afternoon at 2:30 o’clock. A private service was held at the house for the family after which service was held in the Western Methodist Church, of which deceased had been a life long member. Rev. James Gardner, of Belleville, ninety years of age, a boyhood friend of Mr. Gibbard’s briefly addressed those assembled and resident ministers offered prayers. The choir, under the leadership of Mr. Fisher sang Turner’s lovely setting to “Sun of My soul,” with beautiful expression and at the close of the service the male voice quartette, “Still, Still with Thee” was most tastefully rendered by Messrs. Caron, Black, Fisher and Graham. The employees of the factory had full charge of the funeral and turned out in a body. Beautiful wreaths were presented by the employees and the Western Methodist church. The remains were placed in the Western vault to await interment in the family plot there.

Gibbs, Ontario land surveyor of Adolphustown. When a young man he studied for the profession of land surveying and civil engineering and accompanied his father, as assistant, on government surveys. But on account of defective hearing he turned his attention and gave his time on the farm his father had purchased in Adolphustown. For over thirty years he was secretary of the U.E.L. cheese factory of that place. Three years ago his health failed and he moved to Napanee. Mr. Gibbs was of a gentle, retiring disposition honorable and upright in his dealings with others, and ever ready to help in times of trouble and distress. In religion he was a Methodist, and he died with a strong and steadfast faith in his Savior. He leaves one sister to mourn his loss, Miss Mary J. Gibbs, and two nieces, Mrs. A.R.

Gibson, Charles	TWO YOUNG MEN DROWNED – Last Friday afternoon Chas. Gibson, aged 28, and Ernest Instant, aged 30 were drowned while crossing the Bay of Quinte from Emerald to Bath for a doctor. The recent thaw had weakened the ice and the horse and cutter broke through. There were two others in the cutter, George Cork and Robt. McFern, who had a narrow escape. The horse was also drowned. With difficulty Cork succeeded in getting upon solid ice and carried the news back to the island and a rescue party found McFern alive but still in the water. Charles Gibson is a son of John Gibson, Amherst Island, and cousin of Dr. Wm. Gibson, of Kingston. He was unmarried. Ernest Instant, was a brother of Reginald Instant B.Sc. of Queen’s University and son of Nelson Instant, a life-long resident of Amherst Island. The sad occurrence has caused widespread sorrow on Amherst Island where both were residents. The remains of Ernest Instant were recovered on Saturday last, but those of Gibson arte still undiscovered.	From the Watson Scrapbooks
Gibson, David	OLD RESIDENT DEAD - SKETCH OF THE LIFE OF DAVID GIBSON - His Life was Linked with Early History of the City - He Took An Active Interest in Municipal Affairs. Kingston lost another old resident on Friday, in the person of David Gibson, who passed peacefully away at his home, 461 Princess St. at 9:30 o’clock, in the morning. Deceased who was eighty-seven years of age, was connected with Kingston’s early history, and was widely known and respected in this district. The late David Gibson was born in Kingston. His father came to this country from Fifeshire, Scotland, at the close of the war of 1812-13, and was for some time employed in the office of the royal Engineers, at Fort Henry, and also assisted in the building of the Grenville canal, between Ottawa and Montreal. David Gibson was just seven years of age at the time of his father’s death, and as he was the only son, was left to fight life’s battles alone. In the year 1837, he entered the office of the Chronicle and Gazette, as an apprentice. At the close of his apprenticeship, in 1843, he continued in the office as a journeyman. When John Creighton retired to take charge of the Argus, published by John Stewart, and Joseph Boyd left on account of ill-health, Mr. Gibson was appointed foreman and manager of the Chronicle, and this position he held up to the time of his death of the proprietor, James Macfarlane, in 1847. The paper was then merged into the News, the Messrs. Rowlands being the proprietors. Mr. Gibson went from Kingston to Belleville in 1848 to take charge of the publication of a paper and magazine edited by Sheriff Moodie and his gifted wife, another of several publications. After staying in Belleville a year his health failed and he returned to his home city, and upon advice changed his occupation, going into business as a partner in a general store. This venture was not very encouraging however and making a settlement of the business he entered as clerk in a hardware store, also an insurance office, and afterwards the firm of Bryce & Ferguson, where he remained six years. In 1859, he went into business for himself and for many years carried on a successful business. In 1866, Mr. Gibson was elected a member of the school board. He was elected an alderman for Rideau ward, in 1867, and represented that ward to the end of 1874. At this time politics ran high, and Mr. Gibson, who was a staunch conservative, took an active part in the election of Sir John A. Macdonald, Mr. Gibson being a warm personal friend of the latter, and at this time, Mr. Gibson was defeated by a small majority. the next year he was presented with a largely signed requisition, asking him to be an aldermanic candidate in Frontenac ward. He offered himself and was returned without opposition. After representing Frontenac ward for several terms he retired from municipal affairs. On several occasions he was urged to be a candidate for mayor, but declined. Deceased was one of the first managers of the House of Industry and for over thirty years took an active interest in the work of the institution. Deceased was a personal friend of Sir John Macdonald, and the latter often called at his home to see him. Deceased was also a school friend of Sir Oliver Mowat. He was manager of St. Andrew’s church for many years and was engaged in Sunday school work. He was a member of St. Andrew’s society and Sons of Scotland from the time these societies were organized. He was well posted about people and events, and his counsel and advice were often asked. He was a fine writer and wrote several interesting articles for the Kingston papers. Deceased is survived by his wife (Formerly a Miss Wilson, of Belleville), one son, Dr. Gibson, formerly of Hamilton and now of the Eye and Ear hospital, Brooklyn, N.Y.; one daughter, Mrs. McKay, of Barrie, and one grandson. Deceased was democratic in act and feeling. He recognized no such thing as class. His favorite expression given with considerable emphasis was “ A man’s a man for a’ that.” He had a cheery word and smile for all, and had helped others all his life. He was known ever as an honest, upright and staunch friend to all his friends and relatives, and, in fact, to all in trouble and distress he often said: “A king can make a belted knight, A marquis, duke and all that. But an honest man’s above his might, A man’s a man for a’ that.” Deceased was a man in the truest and best sense. He oftentimes said to his son, “My father left me an honorable name and I will hand it on to you.”	Newspaper Clipping

Gibson, Mary (nee Stafford)	MRS. MARY GIBSON - Whose maiden name was Mary Stafford, was born in the county of Tyrone, Ireland, 1807, came to America when twelve years of age with her brother; landed at Boston, Mass., and settled at St. Johns, Lower Canada, now Quebec. On the 13^th of June, 1827, she was united in marriage by Rev. John Bethune, rector, to Mr. William Gibson, of Montreal, where they lived several years, and after thirty-seven years of married life was suddenly and sorely bereaved, as her husband was killed at the grist-mill, in Highgate Falls, Vermont, Nov. 1^st, 1864. She united with the Wesleyan Methodist church, May 1866, under the pastorate of Rev. W. R. Parker, D.D., at Lacolle, St. Johns County, Quebec, where she then resided. Her religious experience was clear, definite and satisfactory. She loved the Methodist Church, as preferred to all others, and remained faithfully devoted in her attachment until transplanted to the Church triumphant, Dec. 28^th, 1886. She moved to West Rutland, Vermont, in October, 1875, and resided with her daughter and son-in-law, Dr. Daniel Fosburgh. As there was not a Methodist church here then, she joined by letter the Congregational church, and when able to attend was regularly in attendance at all the means of grace, though always considered herself a Methodist. Her religious life and experience were marked by deep spirituality and humility. when death was near, she first dreaded the idea of burying the body, but soon triumphed over all fear, and waited patiently for the hour of release. With child-like humbleness and simplicity, she prayed earnestly, and trusted for complete cleansing from all sin. A few days before her departure, she said to the writer, “O, Mr. Schell, I want you to tell everybody I love Him, I love Him, I love Him with all my heart.” Thus she passed to the “house not made with hands, eternal in the heavens.” The funeral services were conducted by the pastor of the Methodist Episcopal Church, assisted by Rev. E. P. Lee, rector, and Rev. H. J. W. Bailey, pastor of the Congregational Church, and loving friends bear testimony that “Mother Gibson” is truly resting from her labors, “asleep in Jesus.” [signed] D. M.

Gibson, Royal A.	ROYAL A. GIBSON - A well-known resident of Amherst Island passed away in the Kingston General Hospital, on June 2, 1958, following a brief illness, in the person of Royal A. Gibson. He was the son of the late John B. Gibson and Mehetable Allen. A lifelong resident of the Island, the late Mr. Gibson had followed the occupation of farming until his partial retirement, some 20 years ago. Although Mr. Gibson had suffered a serious illness when he was 14 years of age, resulting in his partial disability, his interests in life had been many. Following his retirement from farming, he had operated a grist mill at Stella for a number of years as well as serving as caretaker for the Township Hall and Victoria Hall, in Stella. Mr. Gibson had been secretary-treasurer of the committee of Pentland Cemetery for a great many years and since this cemetery was adjacent to his farm, it was a spot dear to his heart and it was through much of his effort that this cemetery had recently been restored to its present fine condition. Last January, Mr. Gibson was appointed as a member to the joint Pentland and Glenwood Cemeteries Board, when the two committees were amalgamated. Gifted with considerable ability for writing, the late Mr. Gibson had served as correspondent for many years for the British Whig and later for the Kingston Whig-Standard, when the two papers were joined. Latterly and up to the time of his death he was local correspondent for the Napanee Beaver. The late Mr. Gibson had been a devoted member of Burleigh L.O.O. No. 482 for over 40 years and two years ago he was made a life member of the association. He was also a past master of many years standing. In religion he was an Anglican, being a member of St. Alban’s Church, Stella. Mr. Gibson was predeceased by two brothers, Cecil and Charles. A niece, Mrs. Frank Brady, Ottawa, survives, as well as a number of cousins at Cleveland, Ohio; Jamestown, N.Y.; Huallen, Alta; Belleville, and Kingston. The funeral was held from the residence of his cousin, Bruce Caughey, to St. Alban’s Church, Stella, with Canon W. B. Williston officiating. Interment was made in Pentland Cemetery. Pall-bearers were Stratton Reid, Wallace Hefford, Ernest Fleming, Marshall Glenn, Robert Brown and Ernest Filson. Flower-bearers were Estel Strain, J.F.

Gilbert, Waty (nee Casey)	DIED - Of consumption, in Adolphustown, on the 1^st September, Waty, consort of Mr. Lazarus Gilbert in the 46^th year of her age. Her parents Mr. William Casy and Martha his wife, were among the first settlers of this Province. Whilst their hands were occupied in the affairs of a new settlement, their hearts were arrested by the Gospel through the instrumentality of Ministers known by the name of Methodists. Having obtained heart-felt religion, these pious parents were not forgetful of the spiritual wants of their children. Their daughter Waty in her 13^th year became sensible of her naturally lost state and joined the Methodist Church. Two years after, while attending a Camp Meeting, (the first held in Canada,) she obtained pardon and grace; and from that happy day until her death she retained her standing in the Church and a union with her God. Various and heavy were her trials through life. At the death of her former husband, Mr. J. West, (of whose happiness in his last moments the readers of the Christian Guardian some time ago heard,) she was left in slender circumstance, with a family of small children, but help was given her from both heaven and earth. -- Her friends afforded assistance in bringing up the little ones, and the widow’s God kindly gave the ‘daily bread.’ Her union with Mr. Gilbert was a happy one. Then she could say, the lines are fallen unto me in pleasant places, I have a goodly heritage. In 1834, her health began to fail. The following Autumn her hectic fever alarmed her friends, and a severe cough soon prostrated her remaining strength. Her pious friends often prayed with her, and on these occasions she frequently manifested much joy. When she became sensible of her approaching dissolution, with great strength of mind she gave directions respecting the course of life she wished her children should pursue. She spoke of death with composure, as one who had a treasure beyond the grave. Her last words were “Glory to God!” in reference to her, the words of the wise man are applicable “The woman that fear the Lord, she shall be praised.” At her funeral an appropriate and very impressive discourse was addressed to a deeply affected assembly. - [Christian Guardian].

Glazier, Adam	ADAM GLAZIER - Of Chiaguacousy, county Peel, one of the early pioneers from Ireland, passed away, 7^th Dec 1885 aged 70 years. He has gone from the Church milliant in joyful expectation of a blissful home with the Church above, leaving a sorrowing widow and daughter (Mrs. J. Mitchell) whom he expects to meet in the better country. For several years he was an invalid, seldom able to go to church or to that means of grace specially prized by him, and by nearly all devout Methodists, who have much to do or to suffer, the class-meeting. Wearisome days and temptations to despondancy were his, yet his also was the language of patience, submission, and victory. Just a week before he died, in company with one of his friends, I visited him. With overflowing heart he spoke of his conversion to Christ under the labors of “Father Long” the blind preacher (about forty years ago); of God’s fatherly goodness all the way, and of his strong confidence and bright hope for all the future. shortly before his death he said to his dear wife, “I am going; I shall soon be home; I’ll watch and wait for your coming.” It was my privilege to be present as this faithful brother passed peacefully away to his rest. The funeral discourse at Cesar’s Church was founded on the words, “Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life, and I will dwell in the house of the Lord forever.” [signed] Geo.

Godfrey, Albert John	Lifting Heavy Trunk Caused Man’s Death Albert J. Godfrey Passes Away at Cape Vincent, Aged Forty-eight Years. Cape Vincent, N.Y., Aug. 12 – Albert John Godfrey, aged forty-eight years, in charge of the freight department at the New York Central railroad station in this village, is dead at his home here as a result of a strain incurred while lifting a heavy trunk from a baggage truck to a boat Sunday night. It is believed that the arteries of the heart were strained. Mr. Godfrey had been employed by the railroad company for the past three years, previous to that time being in the carting business. He has always been in good health. In lifting the heavy trunk Sunday night, he felt something give way, the pain being so intense that he reeled and fell to the ground. Friends assisted him to his feet but he insisted on carrying the trunk to the boat where he was again overcome and fell to the deck of the vessel. He was carried to his home but although he suffered some pain, he did not deem it necessary to call a physician until the following morning. His condition then began to be critical, although he remained conscious. The doctor worked over him all day but Mr. Godfrey passed away Monday night. He was born in Adolphustown, Canada, but came alone to Cape Vincent, from his birthplace, when twenty-three years of age. His marriage to Miss Bernard, of Adolphustown, took place in 1895. He had always lived in this village.	Aug 12 1920 Daily British Whig

Gordanier, James Lewis Philander	Obituary - We regret to have to chronicle this week the demise of an old and respected resident, in the person of James Lewis Philander Gordanier, of Morven. He was of U.E. Loyalist, extraction and had lived all his lifetime of 87 years upon the farm upon which he was born, the property having been continuously in the possession of his family for four generations and occupied by them during that time. He was a man of extraordinary energy and physique, and always active up to the time of his death, which was caused by paralysis. He was a great admirer of the horse and bred and owned many of the best type. He was a Methodist in religion, a staunch Reformer in politics, and a good citizen. He was beloved by all those who associated with him and knew him, his happy disposition and friendly manner always bringing sunshine and happiness wherever he went. He was twice married, having by his first wife, Orinda Bicknell, two sons, Alfred and Lewis (the latter demised) and his second wife, Armintha Caton, two children, James Almon and Addie, all of whom, mourn the irreparable loss of a kind, indulgent and loving father and husband. To each and all of them we extend our heartfelt sympathy in their hour of deep sorrow and sadness.	Jan 4 1918 Napanee Beaver

Gould, Mary (nee Dorn)	Death of Mrs. Gould In Her 93^rd Year. - Mrs. Peter Gould, one of Napanee’s oldest residents, died suddenly at her home on Centre Street on Friday morning. Mrs. Gould, who was in her 93^rd year, had been extremely active and her death was quite unexpected. The previous Sunday she had been at church and Sunday School, but during the week following, complained of a slight cold. On Friday morning, as she was being assisted with her dressing, she suddenly sank back on her bed, dead. Her death removes a familiar and much respected resident of the town. Mrs. Gould, who was formerly Mary Dorn, was born in Russia, New York State, where she married Peter Gould in 1879, who predeceased her in 1908. About 40 years ago, with her husband, she moved to Napanee, from Empey Hill, where Mr. Gould has been operating a cheese factory. When they came to Napanee they opened a small grocery store on Centre Street, just north of the place where Mrs. Gould died. Later, they operated a grocery business on the west side of the market square, until Mr. Gould died. Mrs. Gould had no children, but the late Mrs. Ross Sexsmith, who died about five years ago, was an adopted daughter. She is survived by one sister, Mrs. E. B. Memstreet, of Toronto. Other members of the family who pre-deceased her were her sisters, Mrs. Henry Wilson, Mrs. Jacob Clapp and Mrs. Rev. Wood, and two brothers. Miss Madge Clapp of Waubashene is a niece and Mrs. M. J. Bates, Mrs. J. M. Rose and Mr. M. M. Empey are cousins. A characteristic of Mrs. Gould was her love for her church. Rain or shine she was to be found in her accustomed place in Grace United Church at almost every service. Quite recently she was presented in Grace Church Sunday School, with a certificate in recognition of 21 years regular attendance. Mention of this remarkable achievement, accompanied by a picture of Mrs. Gould, will be found in next Sunday’s copy of the “Onward”. On Sunday a large number of citizens and members of Grace church gathered in the church to pay their last respects to Mrs. Gould. The minister, Rev. W. P. Woodger, conducted the service and Mrs. Harold Dennison sang an appropriate number, “Sweet Peace.”	Scrapbook Clipping

Graham, Oliver	GRAHAM, Oliver, of Fredericksburgh, was found dead yesterday in a marsh near his home. The jury at the inquest returned a verdict of wilful murder against a person or persons unknown. Mr. Graham was a UEL of nearly 81. He had 10 children; 4 in the US; one at the Short Hills above Toronto; one at Brighton; 2 back of Brockville; one on the Ottawa River, 1 at home. Murder! We beg the attention of our contemporaries to the following account. To the Editor of the Upper Canada Herald, Richmond, 13th August, 1838 Sir - You are requested to insert in your paper, for the information of his family, who live at a distance, that Mr. Oliver Grahams, of Fredericksburgh, was yesterday found dead in a marsh, near his place of residence. An inquest was held before J.W. Ferguson, Esq., Coroner, and after due enquiry being made, a verdict of Wilful Murder, against some person or persons unknown, was given by the Jury. Mr. Grahams was an old U.E. Loyalist, nearly 81 years of age; has ten children - four living in the United States, one at the Short Hills above Toronto, one near Brighton, two back of Brockville, and one on the Ottawa River. The circumstances attending his death are truly appalling. The old man and one of his sons lived together alone on a small piece of land, which, owing to the unusual height of the Bay, is this year completely surrounded with water. The son had gone out to work in harvest - he left here on Monday and returned on Saturday evening, and could find nothing of his Father. - His bed lay on the floor, on which was his clothes where he had left them on going to bed. This of course caused suspicion at once, and search was made during the night and until the following morning, when his body was found with evident marks of violence thereon. It appeared in evidence that a person (who is at times insane,) was seen making his way to the old man's house, and was heard to say that he was going there to cross the river. This was late on Thursday afternoon, and strong suspicions rest that he was the perpetrator of the deed. This man was bare-footed, and similar tracks were found in the marsh through which he had to wade in order to get to the house. I am, Sir, yours &c., D. Roblin.

Grange, Maggie (nee Lockridge)	Respected Resident of Selby Passes - MRS. JOHN GRANGE A sad gloom passed over the village and community of Selby, when it was learned of the death of Mrs. Grange, which occurred at her home near Selby, on Thursday evening. Mrs. Grange had been in ill-health for the past two years and for the past few months her condition had been quite serious. A staunch worker in everything pertaining to the good of the district, she will be greatly missed and particularly in the Selby United Church, where she took part in many of its activities. A daughter of Caroline Cobourn and the late John L. Lockridge, Mrs. Grange was a native of the Township of Camden, her home being in the Newburgh district.

He was of U.E.L. descent on both sides, his grandfather being a nephew of Philip Embury, of precious memory. A few years ago he suffered the loss of his eyesight and being an inverate reader, he felt the blow very keenly, although he never complained.

He left his home at Beith when he was nine years old (1848), and entered as an apprentice in tailoring and cutting with his eldest brother, William, at Johnston, Scotland. He remained at this business for thirteen years, when he moved to Glasgow to enter business for himself. He conducted business there for eleven years, from 1861 to 1872, when he decided to try his lot in the New World. While in Glasgow he was a very active member of the Independent Order of Grand Templars, having been head of that organization in the city. On his departure to this country he was presented with a large engraved silver medal as a token of the esteem in which he was held in that organization. He sailed from Glasgow on December 24^th, 1872, arriving at Quebec on the 14^th of January. After spending a few days there and at Montreal he decided to go to Prescott, Ont., where he worked at his trade with Edward Mundell. After a few months he went to Ottawa with Holbrook. On the last day that year, 1873, he married Mary Catherine Dunbar, of Spencerville. In the early part of 1875 he decided to take up a business at Portage du Fort, Quebec, where he resided for eleven years, coming to Camden East in 1886, where he lived the rest of his life. He carried on a tailoring and fancy goods business, later extending to groceries and confectionary. He leaves a widow and four children, Mary Patterson Guy, now living at Winnipeg; William A. Guy, Presbyterian minister at Swift current, Sask.; Robert Dunbar Guy, lawyer in the firm of Moran, Anderson and Guy, Winnipeg, and George Lorne Guy, Consulting Electrical Engineer, also of Winnipeg. He was a self educated man, having left school at nine years. He studied incessantly during his spare time, having a wonderful mathematical brain. Problems involving higher Algebra, especially the Calculus and trigonometry were a favorite past time. In his early years he studied music and could play and sing fairly well. He could speak French as fluently as English, speaking both languages with great grammatical precision. He was a Presbyterian in religion, a member of the Independent Order of United Workmen and the Ancient Free and Accepted masons, by which body his funeral services were conducted.	1919 Scrapbook Clipping
