      ______________

      HOLM, DANIEL

      One by one, the pioneers of the district are passing away. On Wednesday morning, September 9, 1925, one of the oldest native sons of the district passed to his reward. Mr. Holm was born on lot 6, concession 3 of Puslinch Township over 87 years ago, his father Neil Holm having settled on this farm a few years before, coming from the county of York. The country was pretty well wooded and Mr. Holm's was the pioneer's lot. On August 22, he lost his wife, who shared with him the vicissitudes of life for sixty-three years. He was twice married, his first wife also a daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Cornelius Panabaker. Nine years ago, he retired from the farm on which he was born and made his home with his son, Walter. A man of quiet habits, he took no part in municipal life. He was a good neighbour and respected by all who knew him. Four sons and three daughters survive, Isaiah, Elias, Archie, Walter, Mrs. Levi Panabaker, Agnes and Angeline. The funeral was held on Friday afternoon, interment taking place at Wanner's Cemetery.

      -Information from the death certificate: Of lot 3, concession 3 in Puslinch. Born in Puslinch on March 24, 1838, son of Neil Holm and Susannah Cober. Informant - his son, Walter Holm of R. R. #6, Guelph.

      -Information from marriage certificates: One of his wife was Anna or Hannah Panabaker.
