  • Notes 
    • Mrs. William Holdaway Passes

      The death occurred suddenly at Woodstock General Hospital on Monday of Mrs. William Holdaway of that city, in her 63rd year. The former Freida May Chesney, she was born at Wolverton, a daughter of the late James and Sarah Chesney. She came with the family to Ayr some 48 years ago. While here she married William Holdaway, a native of this village, who survives. They subsequently moved to Woodstock, where Mr. Holdaway's employment as a CPR engineer took him. Surviving, besides her husband, are a son, William of Stratford, and two brothers, Arthur Chesney of Ayr and Henry Chesney of Galt. Funeral service will be held Thursday at 2 p.m. from the M. D. Smith Funeral Home, Woodstock, with temporary entombment in Woodstock Mausoleum.
