      John Ernst died early Monday morning at his daughter-in-law's in New Hamburg, where he lived only a few months, after moving from Petersburg. He was one of the first people who moved from Wilmot. He was approximately 58 years old. He settled on land in Petersburg (his birthplace), where he started his home and worked for many years. He was a good trustworthy man and worked many years as a member of Township and County Rathes(?). Because he was a very friendly man with much wisdom, he had many friends
