  • Notes 
    • Death of Mr. Henry Culham, of Beverly

      This very old resident of Beverly died on Monday, at the advanced age of 73 years. He was a resident of Beverly for over 30 year. He was originally, we believe, from wales, and emigrated to this country, accompanied by his wife, about the year 1830, settling almost at once on the farm he occupied for many years afterwards near Sheffield. About fifteen years ago he gave up farming and moved into the village of Branchton, where he continuously resided up to the death of his wife, a few weeks ago, going then to reside with his daughter, Mrs. Stephen Main. Mr. Culham was married three times. His family by his first wife consisted of Mr. George Culham, now residing on the homestead; Mrs. Stephen Main; Mrs. B. ward, of Michigan; Mrs. A. Scott, who died some years ago; Mrs. James Stewart, also dead, and Mrs. Thos. Moffatt. His second wife was a daughter of the late Mr. Alex. Harvie, of Beverly, and his third wife was a lady from Toronto. We believe he had no family by either of the latter. Mr. Culham was a very much respected man and good neighbor. He belonged to the Church of the United Brethren, of Sheffield, and was a most consistent member.
