    Notes:

    Elmira Signet 26 Mar. 1903 p. 2, col. 2 & 3

    Melvin Winger Killed When the news of the train wreck at Islington, which took place last Tuesday, first reached here, it was not suspected that the fatalities would be of more than ordinary interest to our citizens. It transpired however, that the fireman who was killed in the wreck and whose name was given as Charles Winger, was Melvin Charles Winger, a native of Elmira. He was the only son of Mr. Reuben Winger who formerly lived here. He went by the name of Melvin here, hence the failure of recognizing him by the newspaper reports. Toronto, March 17. - Brakeman David Taylor, of London and Fireman Charles Winger, of Windsor, are victims in the latest railway wreck... Mr Winger was married only last December and lived in Toronto. His parents are now living in Brantford... Mr. Hy. Winger of Elmira attended the funeral.
