A native
of Sommersetshire, England, Job Churchill, Stanley Street, Simcoe, is
quietly marking his 90th birthday today.
Blessed with good health, Mr.
Churchill attributes his longevity to the fact that he has worked all
his life and does not smoke or drink. He started to work at the age of
14.
He is the son of the
late Mr. and Mrs. James Churchill and at the age of 11 years came to
this district with his family.
He
has resided in Simcoe and Woodhouse since that time with the exception
of 14 years spent in Dunnville. Before coming to Simcoe he resided on
a farm in Woodhouse, one mile south of town.
There
were ten children in his family, he and a sister, Mrs. Bertha McDonald
of London, being the sole survivors.
Mr.
Churchill has been twice married, his first wife being the former
Eliza [sic] Steinhoff, who passed away many years ago. His
second wife was formerly Lillion Weston.
Mr.
Churchill had one son and two daughters, all of whom have passed away.
He has a number of grandchildren.
