  Joseph Witmer, "is unmarried and resides at Kingsmill, Michigan. He has his home with his sister, Annie." Eby, Ezra E. (1895). A biographical history of Waterloo township and other townships of the county: being a history of the early settlers and their descendants, mostly all of Pennsylvania Dutch origin: as also much other unpublished historical information chiefly of a local character. Berlin [Kitchener, Ont.]: [s.n.]. __________________ Mr. Isaac Witmer on the Huron road has just received the sad news from Michigan of the death of his brother, Joseph. The deceased was at the time engaged in winding up a beef carcass or elevating it by means of a rack-lifter, and by some means or other it came down, crushing Mr. Witmer under its weight, who died soon after. New Hamburg Independent 28 Feb 1896
