WATERLOO NEWS NOTES

Which Came This Morning To Nathan Uttley Dropped Dead While At Work

A startlingly sudden death was that which came to Nathan Uttley this morning about 10 o'clock at the age of 71 years. Deceased was engaged as fireman at the woolen mills and had gone down to work as was his custom, very early about 5 o'clock taking his breakfast with him. An attack of rheumatism had incapacitated him for a few days last week, but otherwise he was in good health. While lifting a shovelful of coal he fell over. His assistant hurriedly called his son, who was about the mill. Together they carried him out, but he expired in a few minutes. Dr. Armitage was called in and he pronounced death due to heart failure. Deceased was a native of Norfolk, England, and had lived in Waterloo for the past 22 years, being employed at the woollen mills the whole of that period. He was a well known figure in town, respected by all who knew him, and a most faithful and efficient employee of his firm. He is survived by a widow and ten children. The latter are: William, of Zurich; Mrs. Cook of Port Huron; Abraham, of Oshawa; Peter and Diana, of Berlin; John and Nathan of Waterloo; and Jonathan, Carrie and Mary, at home. Deceased was twice married. The funeral will take place on Sunday afternoon at 2 o'clock to the Church of the Holy Saviour, Waterloo, and to Mount Hope Cemetery.

Notes:

I found four baptisms and one marriage for 'Birmingham' and one of the baptisms was for my great grandmother and the church recorded that she was the illegitimate daughter of Haris Sanburn and Carolina Babhack (Babcock), baptised at age 3 after her mother married William Birmingham. I haven't figured out the Latin but there's something about her being accepted into the family, which probably means 'adopted'. Now I know this Haris/Harris Sanburn/Sonburn/Saunburn is real and not some fiction. I found no other references to Harris elsewhere in the parish records.
