Notes:

The death of Mrs. Catherine Stueck, widow of the late Engelhard Stueck, occurred last Saturday evening at the home of her son, Mr. George Stueck, in her 88th year. Deceased was born in Germany and came to Canada in 1818. The following year she was married to Mr. Stueck, with whom she had become acquainted when crossing the Atlantic. They lived at Preston a short time then settled on a farm in South Easthope west of Balaclava where they lived many years and where their family was born and raised. About thirty years ago they moved to Hampstead where Mr. Stueck died a little over three years ago. Since that time, Mrs. Stueck has made her home principally with her daughter, Mrs. J.G. Schmidt, on the Wellesley boundary north of here, and for the past few months at the home of her son, George, where she died. A slight stroke about two years ago weakened her health and a second attack recently was the principal cause of her death. The remains were laid away to rest on Tuesday in St. Jacob's (Lutheran) Cemetery, of which church she had for so many years been a consistent, highly respected member.[there are multiple errors in fact in the obit]
