  • Notes 
    • Mrs. John Sanderson

      In the death of Mrs. John Sanderson on Saturday at her home in Toronto, after a few days' illness, another of the early settlers of Carrick Township is removed. Mrs. Sanderson was born in Scotland in 1839, and came to Canada with her parents, the late Mr. and Mrs. John Inglis, in 1855, settling on a farm in Carrick. Prior to her marriage she taught school, later coming to Wroxeter where her husband carried on a successful general business and later became post-master. Mrs. Sanderson was a woman of particularly bright intellect, read widely of the best literature and retained her interest in the current items of the world until the last. She was a life-long member of the Presbyterian Church. Of a family of seven, two daughter, Mrs. J. Forsythe and Mrs. H. Snell predeceased her. The surviving members are three sons; Messrs, J. W. and Frank of Toronto, Feros, in the West, and two daughters, Misses, Ella and Mary, of Toronto. Interment was made in the family plot, Wroxeter cemetery, on the arrival of the funeral cortege from Toronto Tuesday afternoon.
