  • Notes 
    • CRESSMAN - Barbara Randall was born on April 25, 1886, at Heidelberg, Ont., and died at her home near Bridgeport, Ont., on Dec. 27, 1926; aged 40 yr. 8 m. 2 d. On Dec. 5, 1906, she was united in marriage to Alson Cressman who, with one son, Horace, her mother, two sisters, and four brothers mourn her sudden departure. Two years ago she was stricken with paralysis and while she partly regained her strength, she never fully recovered. She suffered much but bore it all with Christian fortitude, leaving many testimonies of her faith in Jesus and her great desire to go to Him. Funeral services were conducted by Oscar Burkholder, on Dec. 29, burial taking place in the Breslau cemetery. Text II Tim. 4: 7.
