Kinzie. - Elizabeth Steiner was born in Wilmot Tp., Waterloo Co., Ont., May 5, 1860; died at Blair, Ont., July 22, 1917; aged 57 y. 2 m. 16 d. Her parents having died when she was quite young she was adopted into the family of Peter Good near St. Jacobs. She was married in Nov. 1878 to Henry Kinzie who with four sons, one daughter, and nine grandchildren are left to mourn her departure. Two sons and one daughter preceded her. Sister Kinzie was taken ill only a few weeks previous to her death. It was the first not thought to be serious, but later she underwent an operation for tumors which resulted in her death. A loved one indeed has left the home vacant, but we mourn not as those who have no hope, for her last words were expressions of peace and readiness for departure. Funeral services were conducted on July 24, at the Hagey Church by Ben Shantz and David Wismer. Burial in adjoining Cemetery.
