    Noah Detweiler," was born March 23rd, 1839. He devoted the early part of his life to agricultural employments. During the religious revivals among the Mennonites some twenty years ago, he was converted and when the new party, now known as the Mennonite Brethren in Christ, was formed in 1874 he became one of its earliest ministers. His preaching is always plain, practical and impressive. In the delivery of his sermons he is very earnest and serious. Up to the present he has done a noble work for the Master and wherever he labored the time has been diligently engaged in sowing the good seed (spreading the Gospel). He is married to Fannie Busch and when home resides in the town of Berlin, Ontario. His family consisted of six children."

    Jacob Detweiler," second son of Jacob and Mary (Funk) Detweiler, was a native of Montgomery County, Pennsylvania, where he was born November 25th, 1778. On December 15th, 1803, he was married to Susannah Rosenberger who was born in the same county as Mr. Detweiler, January 15th, 1781. When a young man he was called to the ministry of the Mennonite body, but when the Funkite question was brought up he would not give his decision in favor of either party. However, after his coming to Canada he was an active worker in behalf of the Mennonite church until his death. In 1822 they, with others, moved to Canada and settled in North Dumfries Township, Waterloo County, a little west of Roseville, on the farm now possessed by their grand-son, Aaron B. Detweiler. Here they resided until their deaths. She died September 9th, 1847, and he died August 8th, 1858. To them was born a family of ten children"
