  • Notes 
    • Gingerich. - Daniel Gingerich, oldest son of Jacob and Marie Gingerich (deceased), was born May 4, 1864; died Feb. 19, 1929; aged 64 y. 9 m. 15 d. He accepted Christ as his Savior and united with the Amish Mennonite Church to which he remained faithful until death. On Oct. 30, 1894, he was united in marriage to Lydia Gingerich. For a number of years he suffered from heart trouble. This winter he was not very well, but was not confined to his bed. He got up from his chair, walked a few steps, and fell on the floor, thus passing away. This union was blessed with 2 daughters and 2 sons: Mrs. Vallie Gerber, Bayfield, Ont.; Mrs. Moses Gerber, Zurich, Ont.; Aaron on the old homestead; and Edmund of St. Agatha, Ont. These children with his wife survive. Funeral services were held at the home conducted by Bro. Peter Boshart and at the church in charge of Christian Schrag in English and Daniel H. Steinman in German. Text, Psa. 90; Jno. 3: 5.
