• Notes

  Clemmer. Caroline, (twin) daughter of Morgan L. and Harriet (Babcock) Hermance, was born near Paris, Brant Co., Ont., July 2, 1828. She was married in 1845 to Abraham C. Clemmer, who was born in Bedminster, Bucks Co., Pa., Sept. 17, 1815, and came to Canada with his parents in early childhood. They settled on his fathers farm two miles east of Berlin, Ont., where they lived until Bro. Clemmers death, Jan. 9, 1893. They united with the Mennonite Church in their youth. Some years after the husbands death, Sister Clemmer made her home in Berlin with her eldest daughter, Marianne, widow of the late Ezra E. Eby. Sister Clemmer was blessed with a spirit of good will toward all, and she "scatered(sic) smiles and sunshine all along her way," cheering, blessing and brightening those around her. The evening of her life was peaceful, and she was surrounded with loving friends who were happy to minister to her wants. A few weeks ago she had an attack of bowel trouble, followed by a severe case of hernia, from which she gradually sank until the end came Oct. 15, 1908, she having reached the ripe old age of 80 years, 3 months and 13 days. Her five sons and three daughters survive to mourn the loss of a loving mother. Beside these and her grandchildren she leaves a host of friends, young and old, who, while they mourn, have the consolation of knowing that after a well-spent life she has entered into eternal rest. She was buried on the 17th in the East End Mennonite Cemetery, Berlin. Funeral services by Noah Stauffer, of Strasburg, Ont. Text, John 14:1-4.
