Deceased was esteemed by a large circle of friends for the womanly graces that adorned her life, and her death is deeply regretted. Mrs Neilson (nee Marion McFarlane) was a daughter of the late Matthew McFarlane, and was one of the first children born in the neighbourhood in the pioneer days, her birth taking place on the Aikenhead farm, a short distance up the Mississippi, Oct 7th, 1822 – a year or so after the arrival of the first settlers of Ramsay. She was therefore in her 78th year. In 1845 she linked her fortunes with those of Mr Neilson, and after nearly half-a-century of happy married life Mr N. died in January, 1893. Nine children were born to them seven of whom survive, viz: Mrs David Forgie, of Cleveland; Mrs (Rev) J. Wilkie, on Indore, Central India – now home on a visit; Matthew, C.E., of St John, N.B.; John, Misses Sarah and Mary, on the homestead; and Miss Jessie, of Cleveland, Maggie died many years ago, and William G. (M.P.P. for Kootenay, B.C.) died at the homestead in January, 1899. With the exception of Matthew, who ha been in Jamaica since February, all of the surviving children were with their mother when the end came, Mrs Wilkie having arrived from Toronto a week earlier. Miss Jessie Neilson on Friday, and Mrs Forgie on Saturday. The funeral took place on Tuesday afternoon, from the homestead to the eighth line cemetery, and was very large one. The services were conducted by Rev R.J. Hutcheon, M.A., pastor of St Andrew's church of which decease had long been an exemplary member. The mourning households have the sympathy of their many friends. Contributor: Gary J Byron (49329383) •
