A recent copy of the Brockville
Recorder contained the following reference to the death of a
lady well known
in St. Williams.
Mrs. Mary Kerr, who died in
St. Vincent de Paul Hospital on 15 Mar 1918 was one of Greenbush's
most esteemed residents.
A week previous to her death
she underwent an operation, but did not recover from its effects.
Deceased was a daughter of
the late Fred Cope of
St. Williams, Ontario, and was 6[1] years of age.
Her aged mother survives at
the age of 91 years, together with one brother, John Cope of St.
Williams, two sons, Frederick Kerr of Geenbush, and Dr. Roy D. Kerr
of Fenelon Falls, Ontario, and two daughters,
Mrs. T. McVeigh of North Angusta and Mrs. Levi Howe
of Rockspring.
Her husband, Thomas Kerr,
predeceased her three years ago.
The funeral was held at
Greenbush Church, of which Mrs. Kerr was a prominent member, and at
one time organist.
