In spiritual matters, she was an earnest searcher for the truth and had a deep ongoing to know the full meaning of the Gospel of Jesus, and to have an intelligent experience of salvation.

Rannie, Caroline	Died - At Adolphustown, on Monday the 6th inst. after a short but severe illness which she bore with christian fortitude and patience, Caroline, wife of Mr. Orrin Ranney, aged 49 years. her piety was without ostentation, and her zeal for the promotion of religion was manifested on all proper occasions. There are many who survive her that cannot soon or easily forget her earnest solicitations to accompany her to the house and worship of God, and her marked attention and devotion while there could not fail to convince them that she was sincere. It may be truly said of her that she died as she lived, in the fear and love of God and in the faith of his blessed Son Jesus Christ, - and her last closing scene of life, her final struggle with the king of terrors was well calculated to excite in the breast of every person then surrounding her couch something like the following beautiful and scriptural wish, "Let me die the death of the righteous, and let my last end be like his." She has left eight children with her consort to deplore her loss.	Feb 15 1832 Upper Canada Herald

Reid, Ann Jane (nee Love)	ANN JANE LOVE - At her home at Reidville, Ann Jane Love, relict of the late Robt. Jas. Reid, entered with sweet anticipation into rest Christmas night shortly after midnight, aged 83 years. Only a few days earlier had she taken to her bed, she had no organic trouble, and the end came rapidly as she slept. Mrs. Reid was born Sept. 1832, at Kingston, Ont., being the daughter of Michael and Eliza Love, who came out to this Province from Cork, Ireland, and settled in the Limestone city. Afterwards, the family removed to Camden and Mrs. Reid graduated from the Newburgh Academy and taught school at Tamworth and Reidville, where she married Robt. James Reid in 1859, in Camden East Anglican Church. The family consisted of 5 sons and 2 daughters, five of whom survive, namely Harper, Albert, Fred, May and Alma. For over half a century she had lived on her farm, beloved by all who knew her. In 1908, her husband predeceased her. He was a man of sterling character. In August 1913, her beloved son, E. J. Reid, was suddenly drowned in Gambier Bay, Alaska, and probably so great was the shock of the sad news that her former health and strength never returned. Ann Jane Love was the salt of the earth, an honoured parent, an affectionate mother, with dutiful and worthy children, a loyal church woman, a faithful Christian. A large cortege attended her funeral at Camden East Church, on Tuesday afternoon, the Rev. Rural Dean Jones, of Tamworth officiating, being assisted by Rev. R. W. Spencer, Rector of Camden East. The text was “A Good Name” Prov. XXII, I. Her Christian works will be missed now she is gone. But the memory of the just is blessed; and right dear in the sight of the Lord is the death of His saints.	Dec 31 1915 Newspaper Clipping

Rendell, Alfred E.	Mr. Rendell's death, though not unexpected, nevertheless caused a feeling of sorrow throughout the town. Coming from England at the age of two years, and his whole life having been spent in this immediate vicinity, gave ample opportunity for his sterling qualities and true manhood to make themselves known. His parents settled in Ernesttown, where deceased's boyhood days were passed. When ready to choose his calling he selected that of builder and contractor, and served and apprenticeship of seven years with Mr. John N. Hough, Gretna. Most of his work for the twenty-five years he was in active business, was done in the country about town, where he had a very large acquaintance, and by whom he was well liked and much respected. When his health prevented the carrying on of this business he moved to town and took up life insurance, and proved a very successful agent. In 1882 he was married to Miss Phoebe A. Hawley, daughter of the late Samuel Hawley of Gosport. She survives him, together with an eight-year old daughter. A son was also born to them, but died in infancy. Deceased was a man of exceptionally rugged constitution, and being very ambitious, was went to give too little attention to proper protection against the weather. As a result he contracted a heavy cold, which was followed by others, and thus the seeds of consumption were sown. Early in life deceased embraced the Methodist faith, and on coming to town to reside, connected himself with the Eastern Methodist church of which he was a faithful member. His long illness was borne with true Christian fortitude; he seemed possessed of patience beyond limit, and no words of complaint were ever heard from his lips. Truly a good man has gone to his reward. The funeral will be held tomorrow afternoon at 2 o'clock, from his late residence, John street, thence to Napanee cemetery vault.	1900 From the Hough scrapbooks

Rennie, Mrs. James	RENNIE - At South Fredericksburgh on Thursday, Oct 2^nd 1913, Mrs. James Rennie, aged 55 years. MRS. JAMES RENNIE - Another soul of beneficent memory among us has "crossed the bar”. As the beauty-glow of sunset closes the Autumn day all too soon, so was closed this life, brief but beautiful. The announcement of the death of Mrs. James Rennie starts the teardrops of a host of friends, and many a heart throbs in sympathy for the bereaved. If any we know, who was worthy of the tribute, "Many daughters have done virtuously but thou excellest them all"; it was she. The late Mrs. Rennie was born at Sillsville and spent her life in that neighbourhood, a benediction to all who knew her. The loss of this devoted worker to the Sandhurst Presbyterian church (of which she was a member) is inestimable. After a painful illness bravely borne, she was relieved by death on the second day of this month, while she yet lacked five of three score years. She leaves a husband and daughter, Mrs. James Robinson, and countless friends to mourn her loss. As her remains repose in the little graveyard on the hill at Sillsville, many who were by her befriended, will bless her memory.	1913 From the Hough Scrapbooks. Oct 31 1913 Napanee Beaver

John Richards, a U.E. Loyalist and was the last survivor of a family of six, and at the time of his death was the oldest native of the Island.

He was also a man of sterling qualities, as all those who had any business relations with him can testify. His word was a good as his bond. He leaves a widow a few years his junior, and a family of five: Councillor John Richards, of Amherst Island; (Mary Jane) Mrs. Wm. Robinson, of Kingston; Augustus and Misses Nellie and Rachael at home.

The present European war created much interest with him and until a few days ago read his papers daily. He was a member of the United Church of Canada.

Richardson, James	James Richardson died, last night, at his residence on Stuart street. The late James Richardson was born in county Tyrone, Ireland, in the year 1819. His father came to Canada when James was three years old and settled in Adolphustown, where he died four years afterwards, leaving his son an orphan, his mother having died soon after his birth. Mr. Richardson has been a resident of Kingston since he was ten years old. He first entered the employment of the late Mr. Dawson and subsequently established himself in business independently. He engaged in various commercial enterprises in which he was remarkably successful and accumulated considerable property. He finally concentrated his business in the grain trade. He was the first man who exported grain from Kingston, and for more than thirty years he has successfully carried on that business and has been the leading grain merchant in central Ontario. During that period he has enjoyed the confidence and esteem of the business and farming community by the integrity and uprightness which have characterized his dealings. He was always loyal to Kingston, and its interests. No citizen has been more prominently identified with the growth of the city, and the development of its business enterprises. When the present custom house was in process of erection the contractor was unable to complete his work, and Mr. Richardson, who was the contractor's surety, carried out the contract giving it his personal supervision for two years and sustaining a loss in connection with 4% of several thousand dollars. Among the enterprises which he has financially promoted are the Kingston & Pembroke railway, the cotton mill, the knitting mill and the locomotive works. He has also been one of the most liberal benefactors of Queen's university. Mr. Richardson was a life-long conservative and voted for the late Sir John A. Macdonald at his first election in the city of Kingston and was his faithful adherent throughout his political career, whilst never obtrusive in the expression of his political opinions. It is well known to many members of the conservative party that it was Sir John Macdonald's wish on more than one occasion that Mr. Richardson should stand as the conservative candidate for Kingston. Until five weeks ago he retained to all appearance the full mental and physical vigor of manhood. Although over seventy years of age there was little in his appearance to suggest the old man. He was then suddenly taken ill at his office and the vitality, which had hitherto seemed unabated, was suddenly attacked, and it was evident that a serious collapse had taken place. Until the last week his friends hoped for his restoration to health, but during the past few days it became apparent that he was sinking, and last evening at nine o'clock he quietly and peacefully passed away. The late Mr. Richardson was a member of Sydenham street Methodist church congregation and most regular and punctual in his attendance. His pew was occupied every Sunday. He had high regard for the church and was one of the most generous of its supporters. He was always willing to aid in the undertakings of its most aggressive workers. He never held office, but by sympathy and liberality backed up those who were the burden-bearers. He was quiet, devout and faithful. He was, in early days, one of the scholars in the first Sunday school in this city, conducted by the Methodists in the old Bay street church. He was afterwards a teacher in the same school. He was one of three of the old scholars at the late picnic of the Sydenham street Sabbath school. He was greatly interested in the first building on the present site of his church home, and a very liberal contributor to the remodelled and beautified church of to-day. He regarded the transformation with pride. Mr. Richardson leaves surviving him his widow, his daughter, Mrs. (Rev.) E.A. Chown, and his two sons, who have been long associated with him in business, and who faithfully maintain the honorable record which their father made. He also leaves two sisters, Mrs. Kerr, of Australia, and Mrs. Allen, Kingston, both several years his senior.	Nov 16 1892 Daily British Whig

Richardson - Mrs. R. Richardson, a resident of this community during her entire life, passed away on Saturday, March 18^th, 1922, at her late residence, South Napanee. Mrs. Richardson had been an invalid for the past eight years, but during her entire illness she was always bright and cheery, and pleased to see all and any of her many friends who visited her. Although her illness was prolonged, still her loved ones always prayed and looked for her recovery, and it was a great shock for everyone when she was called to her reward. She was a member of Grace Methodist Church and attended regularly until she was unable to leave her home. She often spoke of her appreciation of the thoughtfulness and kindness shown her by the members of Grace church, and especially of Rev. A. J. Terrill, who so faithfully and tenderly rendered such words of comfort and cheerfulness since his short pastorate here. Surviving are her husband, one son, Leslie, of Napanee, and two daughters, Lillian, of Detroit, and Tena, at home. The family have the sympathy of the community in this their double sorrow, having, two weeks previous, lost a daughter and sister, Vera.	1922 Scrapbook Clipping

Roberts, William, Rev.	DEATH OF CANON ROBERTS – Rector of Christ Church, Cataraqui, Passes Away – Another clergyman of the Kingston Diocese has been called by death in the passing away, after a long illness, of Canon the Rev. William Roberts, preceptor of St. George’s Cathedral, rector of Christ Church, Cataraqui, and a minor canon of St. George’s. The death of Canon Roberts has cast a gloom over the whole diocese, in various parts of which he was an earnest worker since 1868, when he was first ordained a deacon. He held many charges, and in each his death brings the profoundest regret. As a clergyman, a musician, a scholar and a citizen his presence had a beneficial effect on the community, and he will be sorely missed. Born at Elmesmere, Shropshire, England, seventy-four years ago, the deceased first turned his studies to music. He became a Doctor of Music, and in time was recognized as one of the most learned musicians. Only recently six of his hymn tunes were adopted by the Mother Anglican Church for use in England, and this high testimony to his musical worth brought letters from many titled people who were interested in composers. In 1868 he came to Canada as organist for Hon. John Hamilton, brother of Archbishop Hamilton. This charge was at Hawkesbury. In the same year, having been studying for the ministry, he was ordained as a deacon and appointed to Roblin and Tweed. The next year his ability as a speaker and his advanced studies with more experience brought him the honor of being made a priest. In 1874, he was transferred to Camden East, and then in turn to Shannonville. In 1877, the late Canon Roberts took over the charge of Amherst Island, and there for fourteen years, leaving in 1891 to go to Merrickville. He was in Merrickville until November of 1900, going from there to Adolphustown. In 1904 while at Adolphustown he was made a canon. In 1915, he was appointed to Christ Church, Cataraqui. A man who was held in great esteem by Canon Roberts was his brother, the late Rev. Charles Roberts, who came to Canada in the pioneer days, and was rector of Bourglouis, near Quebec. A stained glass east window was recently erected to his memory. The late Canon Roberts leaves a large family to mourn his loss. Three sisters, Mrs. Lucas, London, Eng., Miss Jane Roberts and Mrs. Fisher, and one brother, John, at Four Crosses Station are still living. Beside his widow, he leaves five daughters and two sons as follows: - Mrs. J. A. Johnston of Smith’s Falls; Mrs. D. M. Allison, Camden, N.Y.; Mrs. F. H. Box, Adolphustown; Charles A. Roberts, Montreal; Miss Winnifred Roberts, Toronto; Morris Roberts, Toronto, and Miss Dorothea Roberts, at home. He was twice married, his first wife, formerly Miss Mary Higginson, Hawkesbury, who died many years ago. His second wife was formerly Miss Sarah Elliott, Tweed, and she survives. The funeral will be held on Friday afternoon from his late residence, Cataraqui, to Christ Church, after which the remains will be transferred to Tweed for interment. The canons of the diocese will act as pall bearers – Kingston Whig, May 17^th, 1917.	1917 From the Watson Scrapbooks

Mrs. Holden Robinson It is with deep feelings of sadness that we are called to pen the death of Mrs. H. Robinson, of South Fredericksburgh, who died of pneumonia on the morning of Nov. 6th at the early age of 38 years. She was ill but three weeks, and often expressed a deep wish that she might recover and prayed to be spared to her dear husband and children, but, if it was God's will, she was willing and prepared for the great change, and leaves her dear mourning friends in confidence to say "O death, where is thy sting. O grave," etc. While sick she received all the attention that a loving husband could give. She was followed from her residence by a large number of sympathizing friends and sorrowing relatives, and placed in St. Paul's church burying ground, there to wait the glorious resurrection, but not without leaving her mourning friends with an assurance that she passed from death unto life, and gone to be with Christ, which is far better. She leaves a kind husband and two daughters in sad bereavement, but while their hearts sink in loneliness and sorrow, may their affections be drawn from the vain things of this earth, and finally meet the dear loved one now at rest.

Robinson, George W.	THE LATE G. W. ROBINSON. Death of a Well Known Ex-Alderman This Morning. Kingstonians were shocked this morning when it became known that ex-Alderman George W. Robinson had passed away. For a few weeks past he had been suffering with hemorrhage of the lungs, but his illness was not generally known to his friends and acquaintances to whom the news of his death came as a sad surprise. Mr. Robinson was born in the township of Portland forty-seven years ago. When he was quite young, the family removed to South Fredericksburgh, where the deceased had his schooling and training in the occupation of blacksmith with the firm of Belford & Armstrong, of Bath. Later he worked with J. Jenkins in Kingston, and with firms in several of the large cities of the United States. In 1873, he returned to Kingston and was for a time in the employ of George Brown & Son. Twenty-one years ago last November he started in business for himself in a little one-story building on the site of his present establishment, and succeeded so well that the business has now grown to be the largest carriage-making establishment owned by a private individual between Toronto and Montreal. Mr. Robinson was a Methodist and belonged to the Masons, Oddfellows, Foresters and United Workmen. In politics he was a staunch Reformer and last year was one of the representatives of Frontenac Ward in the City Council. Mr. Robinson was an enthusiastic bicyclist and one of the prime movers in arranging the preliminaries of the meet which is taking place this afternoon at the K.A.A.A. track. His death on the date of this event will cause a feeling of peculiar sorrow among the city wheelmen with whom he has associated. Mr. Robinson was married November 12^th 1874 to Miss Catharine Amelia Adcock, who survives him. The children, Melville, Nelson, Norman, Bert, Clifford and Florence, all reside in the city.	1895 Records supplied by Mrs. Mertie Jean Ackerman

Robinson, Mrs. Holden	It is with deep feelings of sadness that we are called to pen the death of Mrs. H. Robinson of South Fredericksburgh who died of pneumonia on the morning of Nov. 6^th , at the early age of 38 years. She was ill but three weeks, and often expressed a deep wish that she might recover and prayed to be spared to her dear husband and children, but, if it was God's will, she was willing and prepared for the great change, and leaves her dear mourning friends in confidence to say, "O death, where is thy sting, O grave," etc. While sick she received all the attention that a loving husband could give. She was followed from her residence by a large number of sympathizing friends and sorrowing relatives, and placed in St. Paul's church burying ground there to wait the glorious resurrection but not without leaving her mourning friends with an assurance that she passed from death unto life, and gone to be with Christ, which is far better. She leaves a kind husband and two daughters in sad bereavement, but while their hearts sink in loneliness and sorrow, may their affections be drawn from the vain things of this earth, and finally meet the dear loved one now at rest.	1902 From the Hough Scrapbooks.

Robinson, Susannah (nee Wilborn)	ROBINSON - At South Fredericksburgh, on Friday, May 23^rd, Susannah Wilborn, beloved wife of William Robinson, and mother of G. W. Robinson, of Kingston, aged 71 years. OBITUARY - The Late Mrs. Susannah Robinson. On Thursday, the 22^nd of May, a very estimable and Christian lady in the person of Mrs. Susannah Robinson, died at the residence of her daughter, Mrs. S. Benjamin, in South Fredericksburgh, aged 70 years, 7 months and 8 days. The deceased was a woman of marked ability and perseverance and succeeded in educating and fitting for the world a large family by her own unaided exertions. Besides the daughter mentioned above, she leaves four sons, to manhood grown, to mourn her loss. Maxwell, George, Ceylon and -----, the last named succeeds to the homestead. The other three are engaged in business vocations and are men of ability and undoubted integrity in the communities wherein they reside. Her death was quite sudden, and coming down upon us as it did it cast a deep gloom over our entire neighbourhood. She was interred at Sandhurst on Sunday last, and after a very able sermon by the Rev. R.S. Forneri, who discoursed from the xi chapter of St. John and 4^th verse. During the course of his remarks he spoke of the deceased in the highest terms, saying she was a dutiful wife, a loving mother and a sincere friend. That she in every "storm" of life was 'oak' and 'rock' but in sunshine was 'vine' and 'flower'. To quote his words: Were every one to whom she did some loving service to bring a blossom to her grave, she would sleep tonight beneath a wilderness of flowers. Mrs. Susannah Robinson died on Thursday at her daughters, Mrs. S. Benjamin, in South Fredericksburgh, aged 70 years, 7 months and 8 days. The deceased was a woman of marked ability and perseverance.

Robinson, Wilbert	Lad Burned to Death in a Pig Pen The three year old son of Mr. and Mrs. William Robinson of North Fredericksburgh Township, just outside the city limits and across the river from Napanee, was burned to death Wednesday afternoon in the pig pen next to the barn, in which fire broke out. It is believed that the little chap was in the barn and was playing with matches and the place being filled with grain, caught fire immediately. The screams of the little fellow were heard but the fire was such that no one could enter. While the Whig was learning the details of the tragedy, the fire was still raging and efforts were being made to get the boy’s body out of the pig pen. The firemen from Napanee were called and rushed to the scene of the fire. The remains of the lad were found at twenty minutes to three in the pen, east of the barn. Nothing but the bones remained, the body having been burned to a crisp. Coroner Cowan of Napanee, Chief of Police Barrett and county officials were at the scene of the tragedy when the body was found. Little Lad Burned to Death At His Home Near Napanee Tragedy in the Family of Mr. and Mrs. Percy Robinson – Father and Mother Helpless at Scene of Fire – Remains Buried as the Sun Sank in the West Napanee, Oct 22. – This town was terribly shocked on Wednesday afternoon, when it was learned that Wilbert Robinson, aged three years, son of Mr. and Mrs. Percy Robinson, North Fredericksburgh, had met a tragic death by being burned to death in the barn at the rear of their home near here. A representative of the Whig, who was in Napanee at the time, was early at the scene of the blaze, but the heat was so intense that nothing could be done for the little fellow, who was imprisoned behind a wall of flames. The cause of the fire is unknown, but it is thought that the lad, who was the second oldest of a family of three, must have been playing with matches. The building in which the child met such a tragic death was located about fifty yards in the rear of the family residence and is south of the main part of the town of Napanee. When the Whig representative arrived at the fire it was feared that the two oldest boys had been caught in the burning building. Donald, the oldest of the family, was later located and according to the story of the lad, he became so frightened when he saw the blaze and realizing that his younger brother was in the barn which was all afire, ran with all his might in a southerly direction. He was later found and brought back to his home. At first it was thought and it may still be the case, that the lad was burned to death in the pig-pen, a structure which was on the north side of the barn. When the blaze had somewhat abated, the fire-fighters, with the use of pike-poles, were able to locate the charred remains of the lad and they were at that time in the north-eastern corner of the barn. It is thought that the child, who was first in the pig-pen playing, later made his way into the barn by entering through the door on the south side. The parents think that when their son saw the hay in the stable on fire he tried to reach the door, but was kept back by the flames and fell down in the corner where his charred remains were found. When the body was removed, it was very badly burned, the arms and the legs being absent. Master & Tierney undertakers took charge of the remains, which were placed in a little casket and the burial took place just as the sun was sinking in the west. Rev. J.H.H. Coleman, rector of the Anglican church, conducted the funeral service. Mrs. Robinson, upon noticing the fire, realized that her son had been playing in the barn a few minutes before and felt sure that he had been caught. Thinking that he was in the pig-pen and hearing the cries of the child for help, Mrs. Robinson smashed the windows with her hands and in so doing was badly cut about the fingers. The father, who had been employed for many years by the Daly Tea Co., rushed to the scene of the fire and when informed that it was feared his boy was a victim to the blaze, he attempted to rush into the barn, but the heat forced him back. All that was left for the parents to do was to stand by and wait for what remained of their little son to be brought out. Herbert Parks, who was engaged in shingling a roof a short distance from the scene of the fire, was the first man to respond. When speaking to the Whig representative, Mr. Parks stated that when he arrived outside of the pig-pen, the heat was terrific, but nevertheless, he broke through the windows, heard the cries of the child, but could not see him. Thinking that little Wilbert was inside of the barn he started to cut his way through the walls, but he could not get through on account of there being a tin surface and also two layers of planking. Sam Smith, employed as a driver of a wood delivery was the second man on hand, and he assisted Mr. Parks, but they were unable to do anything. The Napanee Fire department responded and the chief and his assistants did the best they could, but on account of there being no water service or fire protection of any kind, their work was of little avail. The chemical tank was used and the part of the barn where it was though the child was imprisoned was well watered and after the wall collapsed the body was brought out. The deep sympathy of the entire community goes out to Mr. and Mrs. Robinson in the sad loss of their little boy, who was one of the most popular children in the community.

Melancholy Occurrence - On Wednesday last (the 11th inst.), as Mr. Caleb Roblin, son of Philip Roblin, Esqr., of Sophiasburg, was crossing the Mohawk Bay, to the former place, with a load of oak lumber, his horse and himself fell through the ice, where all were unfortunately drowned.

Roblin, David	Obituary – Death of David Roblin, Esq. We deeply regret to announce the death of David Roblin, Esq., of Napanee, yesterday (Sunday) at his residence, Napanee, of disease of the heart. Mr. Roblin was unwell for over twelve months past and for the last few months he seemed to rally and his health considerably improved; but the treacherous disease of which he died was unfortunately one too far certain and fatal in its results. Mr. Roblin represented the County of Lennox & Addington from 1854 to 1861, having at the general election of the former year defeated Mr. Benjamin Seymour by a majority of fifty-four and continued to sit for the County until 1861, when he was defeated by Mr. Hooper, the present representative of the County. For over a quarter of a century Mr. Roblin has taken a prominent position in the politics of the Midland District; and for years did he fight, single handed, the Conservative party, who were strongly marshaled against him, he having stood three election contests before his final triumph in 1854. Mr. Roblin was a Reformer of the Baldwin School and upon the formation of the Macdonald-Cartier administration he gave in his adhesion to and became a strong supporter of the Coalition when formed. He was a self-educated man and endowed with a considerable share of ability. While in the House, he was considered a hard working member and held in much esteem and valued for his faithfulness to party ties. Mr. Roblin for some seven years consecutively was re-elected to the membership of the United Counties – a position which he filled with great credit to himself. The city of Kingston owes to him that splendid pile of buildings, the new Court House and Gaol, which is so great an ornament to Kingston. He died at the age of fifty-three years and leaves a wife and a large family of sons and daughters to mourn his loss. Few men in these Counties will be held in higher esteem and will be more universally regretted. CORRECTION – In an obituary notice of Mr. Roblin, we were guilty of a palpable error. It was stated that Mr. Roblin was re-elected to the “membership” of the United Counties. We should have said that Mr. Roblin was elected for several years consecutively to the “Wardenship” of the United Counties.	Mar 2 & 4 1863 Daily British Whig Mar 4 1863 Daily British Whig

The deceased had lived since middle life in Syracuse to which city the remains were taken yesterday. Mr. Roblin retired from business about eight years ago, but never lost interest in the world's affairs and took deep concern in whatever related to the country of his adoption, and his native country close by. He was a member of the Methodist Church from early youth, and was a consistent Christian and an exemplary man in all respects. His business life was stamped with the record of integrity and honor and his home life was beautified by gentleness and perfect harmony. Though he was a great sufferer during the latter part of his illness he bore all with unflinching fortitude and resignation. Never was a Christian's hope more beautifully illustrated.

Conrad Vandusen, were uncles of the deceased. Mr. Roblin married Sarah Eliza, daughter of John M. Canniff, half sister of the late Mrs. Charles James, Napanee. For some years he lived at Newburgh, where he carried on the harness making business. He moved to Syracuse and some five or six years ago gave up business and moved to Buffalo.

He, together with his parents and an older brother, united with the Methodist Church in the month of September, 1820, and from that time to the day of his death, he was faithful to his Christian vows. At the very beginning of his Christian life he was recognized as eminently suited to fill responsible positions in the Church. He was appointed class-leader by Rev. Henry Shaler in 1834 was licensed as an exhorter by Rev. Benjamin Nankerville in 1844, and received his first local preachers’ license from Rev. R. Brewster in 1863, and continued in that relation to the Church, faithful and useful, to the close of life. Every office of trust in the church was filled by him with faithfulness and acceptability. When a boy the writer of this notice had some knowledge of our departed brother. When sent to this charge in June 1884, he was ready and kind in his welcome, and although burdened by age and infirmity, I found him ever ready to assist in the work of the church. He was faithful in attending the means of grace, never absent until disease peramptorily forbade his presence in the house of prayer. In the spring of 1885, he was seized by that fearful and painful disorder, Bright’s disease of the kidneys, and for about fourteen months was a great sufferer, but was wonderfully sustained by divine grace. He knew in whom he trusted, and was persuaded that God would keep him to the end. His testimony to the power of saving grace was clear and positive to the last. His last admonition to his family and neighbors was “Meet me in heaven” After a month of radient waiting, he sweetly “fell asleep” July 7^th, 1886, and exchanged earth for heaven. Surely “to him to live was Christ, and to die was gain.” Father Rose was married three times. His third wife and a large family of pious sons and daughters are left to mourn the loss of a kind husband and loving father. May they all meet again in the better land. At a meeting of the Official Board, held soon after Mr. Rose’s decease, a resolution was unanimously passed expressing their deep sense of the loss the Church had sustained, their high appreciation of his many years of useful service and their sympathy with the bereaved family.

Rose, Margaret	DIED: on the 12^th instant, after a few days' illness, borne with Christian fortitude and patience, at the residence of her father, Mr. Archibald Rose, of North Fredericksburgh, Miss Margaret Rose, aged 21 years.

Ross, Mary Gordon	MARY GORDON ROSS - The subject of this sketch was born at Silver Hill on Nov 18 1863, and has lived her short life at this place, except a short sojourn in the town of Sarnia, during which time her mother became a widow. Immediately after her father’s death her mother returned to Silver Hill to her friends. Mary was early brought under the influence of the Gospel to a degree that gave her a firm belief in God and of his over-ruling power, but it was not able to believe unto salvation until the winter of 1885, when under the labors of a band of Christian workers, with Bro. Sedgwick as leader, she was hopefully converted to God. On the 18^th day of November, 1885, she was united in marriage to John H. Ross. Although her stay with him was but short, yet her influence as a Christian in the community in which they dwelt was felt by all her associates. Although young in years, she seemed ripe for her eternal home, and God took her from kind friends and a loving husband on the morning of the 9^th of September. A few hours before her death, in conversation with her now bereaved husband, she expressed her full trust and confidence in God, whether she lived or died, that all would be well, for she had fully consecrated her life to him who gave it. On the 11^th of September, 1886, we took all that remained to us of Mary Gordon Ross to Silver Hill cemetery, and deposited it in the grave to wait the resurrection of the just. Then with her pastor the Rev. Mr. Jamieson, we repaired to the chapel and listened to an excellent discourse from Hebrews xii.1 We are confident we voice the feeling of the whole community when we tender to Bro. Ross our warmest sympathy in this hour of bereavement. W.S.	Nov 3 1886 The Christian Guardian

Rose, William Albert	OBITUARY – In the passing of William Alfred Rose, Napanee has lost one of its best known and esteemed citizens. Mr. Rose was born in Richmond in 1842 and has spent nearly all his days in this vicinity. He was the son of the late Archibald and Mary Rose. He was married in 18— to Nancy, daughter of the late Andrew Fraser. Mr. Rose grew up on the farm like many Canadians of his time and his early experience in farm life gave him a good strong frame and an ability to adapt himself to the various offices to which he was called in after life. From the farm he went into business, and for a number of years he conducted business in Napanee. Subsequently he was appointed Inspector for Lennox, and was acknowledged one of the most prudent, careful and efficient officers in that department that the Government had given these Counties. Through his life he has been an ardent temperance advocate and by his departure the Temperance and Moral Reform people have lost a valuable reliable worker. He was anxious for the moral uplift of the youth of his town. Mr. Rose was a quiet, retiring man, gentle and kind in his manner. If the greatest thing a man can do for his Heavenly Father is to be kind to some of His other children, then he did great things. He was a man of deep convictions, and on all moral questions no one doubted on which side he stood. He seemed always to endeavor to be a little better than his word, a little more generous than his promise, and a little larger in deed than in speech. He was a member in full standing in Trinity Church. In all his illness he never murmured, he had committed all to the care of his Heavenly Father and was waiting patiently until his change should come. After a long and wearisome illness he passed quietly to his rest on May 12^th, leaving behind for the comfort of his loved ones a clear testimony of his faith in Christ and of his bright prospect of a home where sickness never comes. He leaves to mourn their loss a wife and two daughters, Mrs. Sale, of London, Eng., and Mrs. Fred Wilson, of Glenora. They feel that He has given their beloved sleep. – Com.

Rose, Mrs. W. A.	MEMORIAL SERVICE – A short memorial service was held at Trinity Church, on Tuesday evening, May 13^th at 8 o’clock for Mrs. W. A. Rose, who passed away peacefully at her residence, on April 27^th. A large number of her friends attended to pay their last tribute to one so deeply mourned and for so many years a resident of Napanee. The service opened with the hymn, “Thy Will Be Done”, followed with a scripture lesson taken from St. John 11:25 and 26, seeming most appropriate. Mrs. Finkle spoke of her great intimacy with Mrs. Rose, with whom she had been acquainted for twenty years, also mentioning her great church devotion. Mrs. Richardson spoke of Mrs. Rose’s entire confidence in God, adding that in losing so old and valued a friend she was indeed personally bereaved. Mrs. Rose leaves behind to mourn her loss, two daughters, Mrs. F. S. Wilson, of Belleville, and Mrs. C.V. Sale, of London, England; six grandchildren and two great-grandchildren.

Russell, Thomas	Thomas Russell - An old and respected resident of North Fredericksburgh, died on Sunday last, aged 8- years. Deceased was born in Stirlingshire, Scotland, and came to Canada when about twenty years of age. After about two years he returned to his native land and married Miss Jean Rennie the following year. In 1865, with his wife and family, he returned to Canada, and for two years resided on a farm in Camden, after which he removed to a farm on Hay Bay. To Mr. and Mrs. Russell were born two sons, Walter (deceased), and James, and three daughters, two of whom survive him, Mrs. Wm. M. Baird, of North Fredericksburgh, and Mrs. Peter Chalmers, Adolphustown. Mr. Russell was an intelligent, industrious and plodding Scotchman, and notwithstanding a severe loss sustained years ago though an imperfect deed to a beautiful farm he purchased on the shores of Hay Bay, paying $6,000 therefor, and which he was compelled to give up, he amassed a liberal competence for his declining years. The particulars of the losing of his farm will be remembered by many. He paid as above for the property, on which there was not a building. He at once erected a fine house, barn and outbuildings, set out a large orchard, and brought the land to a fine state of cultivation. After a number of years, and when all these improvements were made (the property at that time worth at least $12,000), a claimant for the farm appeared, who after a long course in the law courts, proved that the farm was his, and the party from whom he had purchased was not entitled to sell the property. After leaving the farm he purchased a house at Little Creek, where he lived until the death of his wife, in 1891, when he went to reside with his son, James, who owns the Henry Ham farm, and where he died. Deceased was a life-long conservative, but was liberal in his views towards his opponents. He was a consistent member of the Presbyterian church, and died in the full hope of a glorious resurrection. The funeral took place on Tuesday last, the services being conducted by his pastor, Rev. W. W. Peck, the venerable Rev. David Wilson delivering a most impressive prayer at the close. The remains were interred in Napanee cemetery, a large concourse of friends and acquaintances following them to the grave. His granddaughter, Miss Jean Russell, died just nine days previous. The sympathy of the community goes to the bereaved relatives.	Aug 20 1897 Napanee Beaver
Russell, Walter A.	DIED IN EARLY YOUTH – Walter A. Russell, son of the late Walter Russell, died on Saturday morning 9^th Nov., at the residence of his aunt, Miss Sarah Allen, Mill St., aged 23 years. Deceased was born in Colorado, and after receiving a splendid education, took up the vocation of dry goods clerk which he pursued for five years in a large store in New York City. About a year ago his health began to fail and he came to Napanee for treatment. All that kind and loving hands and the best medical skill could do for him was of no avail, and his spirit fled to the great beyond on Saturday morning. One brother, James, of Toronto, is left to mourn the loss of a kind and loving brother. The funeral, which took place on Monday afternoon to the Eastern vault, was largely attended, showing the high esteem in which the young man was held by his many friends in Napanee.

Rutherford, William	WILLIAM RUTHERFORD, Esq. - Was born in the county of Monaghan, Ireland in the year 1815 and in the year 1833, he emigrated to Canada, and settled in the township of Cavan, near Peterborough. In 1842 he removed to the township of Wellesley, County of Waterloo, and in 1845 he came to the village of Millbank, County of Perth. Here he commenced business, and in a few years became one of the most extensive and successful merchants in the county. He was appointed the first post-master of the village forty years ago, the duties of which he faithfully discharged till death. For years he held a position in the councils of the township and county. In the year 1853, he married Miss Elenor Freeborn, a devoted Christian, who exerted a blessed influence in her new home. Their house was for many years the home of ministers, where they were hospitably entertained. Bro. Rutherford was universally respected and loved by all, and loved most by those who knew him best. He was a man of genuine sterling worth, and known by all as the poor man’s friend. It was not until a short time before his death that he received a clear evidence of his acceptance with God. The Sabbath before his death, by his request, I administered to him the sacrament of the Lord’s Supper, when he expressed unshaken confidence in Christ as his Saviour. A letter received a few days before his death from his son Boyd, of Manitoba, expressing the very great pleasure it gave him to hear of the conversion of his brothers and sisters at home, was read to the dying father amid mingled feelings of joy and sorrow. His son William, who was by his bedside day and night reading to him the blessed promises of God’s word, had his own soul wonderfully blessed in listening to the triumphal expressions of his dying father, such as “My trust is all in Jesus;” “He is my only Comfort:” “My work is all done, and I am tired and want to go to Jesus.” All that kind friends and medical skill could do was of no avail, so in a little over a week inflammation of the lungs did its sad work, and on the 10^th of February, 1886, in the seventy-first year of his age, our dear friend and brother fell asleep in Jesus. The funeral was one of the largest ever known in this part of the country. All the ministers of the different churches of the place were present. We laid all that was mortal of a true friend and neighbor in the cold grave in the Wellesley cemetery, in sure and certain hope of a glorious resurrection. The writer preached a funeral sermon the following Sabbath in the Methodist Church to a very large congregation, when the church was all draped in mourning. Mr. Rutherford was a kind and devoted husband and a loving and affectionate father, and leaves a widow and ten children to mourn his loss, but they mourn not as those without hope. They know father has landed safe on the other shore. Six of his children were happily converted to God a few weeks before his death, and are now consecrating themselves to God and his service. May they make up an unbroken family in heaven.	May 12 1886 The Christian Guardian

Ruttan, Allan	Late Allan Ruttan, M.D. - He Died at His Residence in Napanee Was one of the best known physicians in Eastern Ontario - A sketch of his career - He was a descendant of U.E .Loyalists - Enjoyed a fine practice Dr. Allan Ruttan died at Napanee on Friday at 1:30 p.m., after a lengthened illness, in the seventy-third year of his age. The deceased was one of the best known physicians in Ontario and for many years a member of the Ontario medical council, representing the Trent and Newcastle division. Deceased was born in Adolphustown on January 26^th, 1826. He was educated at the Picton grammar school and entered McGill college, Montreal, from which he graduated in medicine and surgery in 1852. Soon after he located in the then thriving village of Newburgh, of which he was a prominent resident for a number of years. At that time Newburgh was a successful rival of Napanee as regards population, prosperity and business enterprise, and much in advance in its educational facilities. The appointment of Napanee as the county town on separation from Frontenac county, together with the location of the Grand Trunk railway, were the turning points against Newburgh. The doctor became convinced that Newburgh was not destined to grow much and moved to Picton, where he practiced for two or three years. He located to Napanee in 1865 and has been a resident ever since. Very soon after commencing practice in Newburgh the doctor was married in St. George church, Montreal, to Miss Caroline Smith, a highly esteemed young lady of that city, with whom he became acquainted in his college days. She has been a help-mate, indeed, to him ever since. They had five children. The surviving sons are Prof. R. Fullord Ruttan, B.A., M.D., professor of practical chemistry and registrar of the medical faculty of McGill college, Montreal, and G.F. Ruttan, practicing barrister, of Napanee. Two daughters, Ida E. and Bertha E., died in womanhood. The doctor and his family were active members of the Church of England. For years St. Mary Magdalene church had not had a more faithful and reliable member. He took an active and prominent part in the erection of the new and substantial church, donating to it the beautiful circle window in the front and probably as fine a specimen of real good taste and artistic skill as can anywhere be found in this section of country. In many other ways, temporarily and spiritually, he did much to advance the church's interests. He also took a very active interest in educational matters. For years, in his earlier days, he was superintendent of schools for Camden township. In Napanee he was lively in the development of our present excellent school system. He was for years a member of the school board, and was its chairman for several years. In politics the doctor was a warm adherent of the conservative party. He always enjoyed a large and lucrative practice and was the "beloved physician" of many large families for forty years. Had he been less generous to the poor, more exacting in his charges and as sharp as many about his collections, no doubt he would have become a very wealthy man. Few were ever more considerate of the poor. He frequently boasted that he had never sued anyone in his life. In consequence of his kindly nature in this way no doubt thousands of dollars honestly earned in his practice were never paid to him at all. The doctor had an honest pride in the fact that he was a descendant of the U.E. Loyalist pioneers. His grandfather, with his family, were among the first band of loyal refugees who landed at Adolphustown in 1784. The family located on the front of that township near the bay shore, between the Allisons on the east and Allens on the west, and here they made their permanent home. He was the proud possessor of a veritable grandfather's clock, which his grandfather had, and is claimed to have been the very first clock ever set going in that old township. The funeral occurs on Sunday afternoon.	Aug 13 1898 Daily British Whig

Ruttan, Archie Thomson	Death of Archie Ruttan In ill health for a considerable time there passed away at his home at Morven on Wednesday night, Archie Thomson Ruttan in his 77^th year. Mr. Ruttan, who was well known in Napanee, as he had resided five miles east of the town for many years, was a son of Jacob Ruttan and Mary Ann McConkey. His birthplace was at Adolphustown and his father was among those United Empire Loyalists who left the United States and settled in the township of Adolphustown. An uncle of the deceased was the Hon. Henry Ruttan. When a young man he came to the Morven district to reside. This was in 1881 and Morven had been his home since that time. He was associated for many years with James Richardson and Son of Kingston in the purchasing of grain and with the late George I. Perry purchased many thousands of bushels for this firm. Although in ill health for a considerable time he was, until recently up and around and his death will be learned with regret by his wide circle of friends throughout this district. The deceased was reared in the traditions of the Conservative party and was a prominent Conservative until the Conscription issue came to the fore in 1917. He did not take to this issue and left his party. Since that time he had been as prominent a Liberal as he was a Conservative prior to the issue. A brother John passed away over twenty years ago, and he leaves to mourn his loss his widow, who before her marriage was Miss Augusta Ellen Bartels, and one son, Gordon Ruttan of Windsor. A son Wright Ruttan passed away two years ago. Mr. Ruttan was an Anglican and attended St. Thomas’ Church, Morven. Rev. L.O. Walker, rector of Bath and Ernestown will conduct the funeral service which will be held from his late residence.	Mar 23 1934 Kingston Whig Standard
Ruttan, Benson	Benson Ruttan of Picton Dies in 91^st Year, Widely Known Picton – A well known citizen passed away on Sunday in the person of Benson Ruttan. He was in his 91^st year. Funeral service was held Tuesday afternoon at his late residence, 12 Ferguson street, with entombment in Glenwood vault. Mr. Ruttan’s great-grandfather, Major Peter Ruttan, came to Adolphustown with the United Empire Loyalists in 1783 [sic]. He received a Crown deed and the land remained in the Ruttan family until recent years. Thirty-five years ago, Mr. Ruttan came to Picton to reside. His hobby was growing roses. He was an ardent fisherman and a member of the United Church. Until the past year he was in good health and walked to the post office each day. Surviving is his sister-in-law, Mrs. Mabel Ruttan, who made her home with him and a nephew, Harold Ruttan in England.	Dec 18 1951 Kingston Whig Standard
Ruttan, Charles N.	Death of Mr. Ruttan, On May 28^th at 6 o'clock a.m., Grimsby East was called upon to part with one of its best and most highly respected citizens in the person of Mr. Charles N. Ruttan, who was born at Adolphustown on May 5th 1862. His parents were Elisha Ruttan and Susanna Outwater of good old U.E.L. Stock who held from the Crown the title to the "Old Homestead" where as a boy and youth Charles spent the early years of his life. Here, too, under the influence of a christian home, he sought and found Christ as a personal Saviour and became an earnest faithful christian. On February 21^st 1911 he married Edith Mabel Johnson, second daughter of the late H.M. Johnson of Hallowell Township, and soon after settled at Grimsby East and became one of our successful and earnest fruit growers. Some months ago his health began to fail and internal trouble compelled him to seek expert medical aid and for some weeks was a patient in St. Josephs Hospital, Hamilton, where the most skillful physicians and surgeons in the city gave him the best and most modern treatments known to the profession. This however proved unavailing and on May 11^th he returned to his home with the prospect of an operation in the near future. This however, was not to be for on May 22^nd, he was taken ill with pleurisy, developing into double pneumonia and as the end drew near he was ready and willing to depart and be with Christ, which was far better and at six o'clock on Friday morning, May 28th he passed peacefully away to the home beyond. On Sunday evening, May 30^th, as service was held in the home conducted by his pastor, Rev. J.A. McLachlan of Grimsby, assisted by Rev. T. Ratcliffe of the Baptist Church, Grimsby, and early on Monday morning the remains were taken to Picton for interment. A service was held at the home of his brothers Benson and John Ruttan, conducted by Rev. a. Brown, D.D. of Picton and the burial took place in Glenwood cemetery. He leaves to mourn his loss, in addition to the two brothers above mentioned, his wife and little son, Harold. I wish here, Mr. Editor, to pay a tribute of respect to the memory of the departed, whom I have known and been intimately acquainted with for 9 years and I have ever found him a kind and obliging neighbor, a man of sterling character and true worth, whose word could be depended on at all times . I have been in Church fellowship with him for many years and always found him a faithful and consistent member of the Methodist church, a true christian at heart and a kind loving husband and father - How greatly we need more such men in our community and in the World today.

Ruttan, Elisha	RUTTAN – At Adolphustown, on Aug. 20^th, Elisha Ruttan, aged 93 years. Another of the old landmarks of Adolphustown has passed away, in the person of Elisha Ruttan, who died at his home on the 20^th inst. He was a grandson of the U. E. L. pioneer Captain Peter Ruttan, who selected as a portion of the grant to which he was entitled as a Loyalist that picturesque point jutting out into the Bay of Quinte, between Bass Cove and Perch Cove. Here generations of Ruttans have lived, and no other name has ever been entered against these lands in the Registry office. Upon this farm Elisha Ruttan was born, and here for upwards of ninety-two and one half years has he lived, rarely leaving his comfortable home amid its beautiful surroundings of water, farm and woodland. He led a simple life but was possessed of an unusual amount of good common sense of which he made practical use in the management of his own private affairs in his study of public questions and in his intercourse with his neighbors. The result of his quiet and reserved manner living was that his farm was one of the best equipped and best cultivated in the County. He was well posted upon the events of the world and never entertained extreme views and succeeded in winning the esteem of all who were brought in contact with him, and at the time of his death no man in the Township was more highly respected than he. He leaves behind him three sons, Benson and John, on the old homestead, and Charles, a successful fruit grower in the Niagara District.
