• Notes

  Samuel Ruby (By Chronicle Correspondent) Baden.--Residents of Baden learned with regret of the passing of Mr. Samuel Ruby, a former resident, on Sunday, Jan. 22, in the K-W Hospital. The late Mr. Ruby, who was in his 62nd year was born in East Zorra in 1878. For some years he resided as a farmer at Baden, but in later years followed the trade of a baker and resided at 730 King street in Kitchener. The deceased death followed an illness of six months' duration. Mr. Ruby was a son of the late Chris. Ruby and Annie Roth and was of Amish Mennonite faith. In 1908 he was married in Wilmot township to Miss Mary Roth, a daughter of the late David and Mrs. Roth of Baden. Besides his sorrowing widow, he leaves to mourn his loss, nine children, Lorne, Stanley, Floyd, Lloyd and Ethel of Kitchener, Alfreda, Mrs. G. Schmidt, of Windsor, Percy of Collins Boy, Irene of Windsor and Elroy of Baden. Two brothers, John of East Zorra, Eli of New Mexico and one sister, Lena, Mrs. Noah Bender of Wilmot township, also survive. The funeral was held on Wednesday afternoon, private at the house and a public service in Steinman's Amish Mennonite Church. The burial service took place in the adjoining cemetery with Bishop M.O. Jantzi officiating at the services. The Waterloo Chronicle Jan 27 1939 pg 3
