Notes |
- MRS. JONATHAN UTTLEY
One by one, death calls in the pioneers of this district, one of the best known and most highly respected of whom passed away in her home on Church Street last Saturday. Matilda Girling, relict of the late Jonathan Uttley, was born on the 12th of March, 1833, near Beccles, Suffolk, England, and emigrated to Canada in the spring of 1856. She landed in Preston, and in the year 1657 [1857] she was married to Jonathan Uttley, who later became one of Elmira's most enterprising business men, and to whom she proved to be true helpmeet. The union was blessed with six children, three of whom died in their infancy. The remaining ones were James, who predeceased his parents; Ellen (Mrs. Thomas Hall) and Annie (Mrs. Menno Wilfong), both of whom reside in Elmira. Four grandchildren, one great-grandchild and a half brother, Mr. John Linder, of Toronto, survive. Deceased was widely known and will be greatly missed by all who had the opportunity of coming in contact with her numerous good qualities and her helpful disposition. She was a member of the Presbyterian Church. She was one of the few remaining ones who grew up with Elmira and whose residence here extended considerably over half a century. The funeral was held last Monday afternoon, Rev. Dr. Blair [Presbyterian Church] and Rev. P. Webster [Methodist Church] officiating at the house, whence the remains were taken to the Elmira Cemetery for burial.
