Read More	Orangeville Banner, May 23, 1907, page 6 - MONO CENTRE NEWS It becomes our painful duty this week to report the death of one of Mono's oldest residents. We refer to Mr. Thomas Patterson who passed away at his home, lot 18, 1st line, east, on Friday morning last. The deceased had been ill some time prior to his death and the inevitable dissolution, which awaits us all didn't come unexpectedly. In his earlier life Mr. Patterson was a man of robust, vigorous physique, but about twenty years ago he had a slight stroke and has never been so well since that occasion. He was born in the north of Ireland in 1817 and was consequently 90 years of age at the time of his death. He emigrated to this country with his parents when a lad of thirteen. The family came to Mono shortly after landing in Canada and settled on lot 18, 1st line, east, where the subject of our sketch has resided continuously ever since. They were among the very first settlers in this part of the township. In common with other members of the family, young Patterson experienced much of the privations and hardships incident to pioneer life. Toronto was at that time the nearest point at which the settler could market the products of his farm and when a young man Patterson teamed grain to Toronto for a number of years. The farm work and teaming was done largely with oxen and he was one of the first settlers in the neighborhood who acquired a team of horses. Mr. Patterson married Miss Mary Simpson, a daughter of Wm. Simpson, a one-time resident of Mono. The union which proved a singularly happy one, was further blessed with a family of eight children, four of whom are living today. Mrs. Patterson still survives and although feeble in health retains the use of her faculties in a remarkable degree considering her great age. The death of her life partner has been a cruel blow to the aged lady, who feels keenly the irretrievable loss she has suffered. The members of the family, still living, are William Patterson, Wawanesa, Man.; Thomas, Melita, Man.; Robert, of Shelburne, and Alex., who resides on the homestead. The late Mr. Patterson belongs to a family that is remarkable for its longevity. One of his brothers, William Patterson, died a few years ago at the age of 88 and another, Aaron, passed away something like ten years ago in his 90th year. The deceased was a man of quiet, industrious habits and was well liked by the whole neighborhood. The funeral, which was held to Mono Centre burying ground on Sunday afternoon, was a very large one, friends and neighbors from far and near having assembled to pay their last mark of respect to the memory of the man they had known so long and esteemed so well. Rev. G. W. Rose, pastor of Burns' church, officiated at the house and grave.
