Wife of Former Pastor Here - Mrs. Jamieson Dies After a Long and Useful Life

The body of Mrs. Jamieson, at one time a resident of LeMars, was brought here for interment on Saturday and buried beside the remains of her husband who died two years ago.

Mrs. Jamieson was the wife of Rev. Archibald Jamieson who in his lifetime was a well known minister in the Methodist Northwestern conference and served as pastor in a number of churches in Iowa and South Dakota. He was pastor of the First Methodist Church in LeMars in the eighties and was for many years a frequent visitor in LeMars when his son, the late Robert Jamieson, lived here.

Of late years, Mrs. Jamieson made her home with her daughter, Mrs. Jennie Foster, in Correctionville, moving a year or two ago to Clear Lake. Her death was due to pneumonia coupled with the infirmities of old age. Her maiden name was Annie Corry, and she was born 83 years ago at Perth, Ontario, Canada, and was married in that country to Rev. Archibald Jamieson. They came to Iowa shortly after their marriage.

She is survived by her daughter, Mrs. Jennie Foster of Clear Lake, Ia., and two sons, Amos Jamieson of Pasadena, Cal., and W. I. Jamieson of Miles City, Mont.

The funeral services were conducted by Rev. Mark Masters of Alta and Rev. Walter Torbet of LeMars, both ministers being old and intimate friends of the family.

Mrs. Jennie Foster and R. B. Foster of Clear Lake, Rev. and Mrs. Parke E. Miller of Allendorf, Ia., and Mrs. Archie Jamieson of St. James, Minn., were relatives who came to LeMars to attend the last rites. Mrs. Jamieson had many friends during her long and useful life she helped who held her in high regard. She was a devout christian woman who made the world a better place in which to live.

2216 Annie Cairns Hood was married to Jacob "Jake" Halliday. She was Jake's second wife. His first wife was her first cousin Penelope Hood, who died during childbirth. Annie and Jake had one child, Gordon Stewart, who died when he was seven months old.

Annie's brother John "Johnny" Scott Hood had relocated to Cass County, North Dakota in 1896 (per the 1900 census), where he was working as a carpenter. A year after Gordon's death, Annie, Jake, and Annie's siblings Martha and (Robert) George also relocated to Cass County. Annie and Jake eventually moved to Devils Lake where they lived for many years. Annie and Jake also lived for a time in Oregon. When Annie's mother died, her obituary lists Annie as living in Eugene, Lane County, Oregon. On the 1930 census, Annie and Jake are living in Multnomah County, Oregon. It is not known why Annie and Jake were living in Oregon, whether Jake had family there, if friends encouraged them to come, or if they simply wanted an adventure. Annie was known for her crocheting.

The couple was living again in Devils Lake when Jake died in 1939. Over 30 years were spent living in Devils Lake, and one of Annie's good friends must have been Ada Brainard (FAG #122047595) who is buried at Devils Lake Cemetery. Ada was just one year older than Annie and must have given her two 8 x 10" professional pictures of herself. The back of one photo read: "With Love to Mrs. Halliday From Mrs. Brainard". It is believed that one of Ada's hobbies was photography. Descendants from the Hood family kept these pictures in good shape for over 80 years, before one of Ada's great grandsons was tracked down and the pictures sent to him.

It is not known where Annie died. There is no record of a death certificate for her in North Dakota, so she may have returned to the Huron/Wellington County, Ontario Canada area and died there. Annie's younger sister Margaret had married Tony Holt and was living in Ontario. Jake, Annie, Penelope and Gordon are all buried at the same location at Harriston Cemetery, Minto Township, Wellington County, Ontario.

2224 Another Pioneer of the Community Answers Summons - Funeral Services Held Sunday Afternoon

William McLaren, one of the pioneer residents of the McCanna community, passed away in the county hospital in this city last Thursday, following a lingering illness which had kept him bedridden for some time.

Born October 30th, 1858, in Perth, Ontario, Mr. McLaren came to the McCanna community 61 years ago when a young man, and engaged in farming operations for a great many years. About seven years ago, when his health started to fail he moved to Grand Forks and lived there until about two years ago when they moved to this city and have resided here since. He was 83 years of age at the time of his death.

Mr. McLaren took a great deal of interest in local and county politics, and was at one time a county commissioner and served on the township boards for several terms.

Surviving are the widow, three daughters, Mrs. Mabel Collins and Mrs. Cora Engh of Grand Forks, and Mrs. Floyd Warcup of this city, a niece, Mrs. George Alexander of Minneapolis, eight grandchildren and three great grandchildren.

2225 Another Victim
Yesterday about 2 o'clock, pm, James McLaren, on of the oldest settlers on the Scotch Line, went into Charles Gordon's Tavern in this Town and asked for liquor which was refused him. He then solicited something to eat & some bread and beef was given to him. When he had about half concluded, he began to cough - leaned back his h ead, and expired. It is supposed that the meat stuck in his throat, and choked him. An Inquest, at the time we write, is about to be held. We understand that he was partially the worse of liquor at the  time, and has been since Tuesday, more or less in the same state. This is another warning! Who will be the next victim?

2226 answered a call of the first organized Lutheran congregation in central Canada in Williamsburg Township. Reverend Schwerdtfeger became the first Pastor of the church the Lutherans of Dundas County built in 1790 at the front of Williamsburg .

2227 Anthony Mervin Holt, 83, of the Redwoods Hotel, died Thursday (Feb. 28, 1967) at Josephine General Hospital. Born June 29, 1883, in Ontario, Canada, he had lived here since 1952.

Private graveside services will be Thursday at Hawthorne Memorial Gardens, with Hull and Hull Funeral Home in charge.

Survivors include the widow, Margaret, Grants Pass; a daughter Daryle, Rogue River; a son, John, Grants Pass; a brother, Fred, Ontario, Canada, and two grandsons. [Tony also had a stepdaughter, Mary Lou DeJanvier.]

Anthony "Tony" M. Holt was born June 29, 1883 in Wallace Township, Perth County, Ontario. [Familysearch.org lists that Tony was born in Moorefield, Wellington County, Ontario.] He was the son of John Holt and Charlotte Anger. Both of Tony's parents were born in Canada, although the Holt line originally came from Ireland around 1842. Charlotte Victoria, born in 1879, was the first child born to John Holt and his wife Charlotte. Next came William John, born in 1881. Two years later, in 1883, Anthony Mervyn came along, followed lastly by Frederick George in 1885. Tony's siblings all stayed in Canada.

On Tony's obituary and death certificate, his middle name is listed as Mervin, but according to his WWI registration card, his middle name is written as Mervyn (His middle name has also been written as Melvin-see birth documentation.). All men in the United States had to fill out this registration card, whether or not they eventually enlisted. This card lists his occupation as "Druggist", something he must have worked at his whole life, as his death certificate lists his occupation as "proprietor, pharmacist retail drug store". Tony's WWI registration card from the County of Sheridan, Montana, lists him as age 35 and married. His wife was Agnes Gertrude Dailey, who he had married on Jan. 18, 1909 in Devils Lake, Ramsey County, North Dakota. One son, John ("Jack") M., was born on Nov. 10, 1909, and one daughter, Daryle Carmille, born Apr. 13, 1912, came from this marriage. Both children were born in North Dakota, but the family eventually moved to Saskatchewan, as they show up living in Saskatchewan on the Canadian 1916 Census (Mervin, Agnes, John and Daryl). They next appear to have moved to Montana where they show up on the 1920 US Census living in Sheridan. Tony and Agnes later divorced. It is not yet known where Agnes is buried.

Tony must have been in the military, because he had a gray wool blanket from that time, that had one black stripe on it. It isn't yet known if he was with the United States or the Canadian forces. The black stripe showed that he must have been an officer. In the US Army, officers had a black stripe running up their pant leg. This originated from the time when most officers were on horse back, and riding a horse would cause a kind of a stripe on their pants.

His second wife was Margaret Janet Hood, the widow of William C. McCauley. Tony had first met Margaret years before when he roomed at her parent's boarding house in Devils Lake, North Dakota. Tony eventually moved back up to Canada to take over his parent's farm. He and Margaret were married on October 12, 1950 in Listowel, Ontario, and they lived on the farm for about one year. After that, the couple relocated to Grants Pass Oregon, where they lived on 7th Street. Tony's son was living in Grants Pass, and his daughter lived in the southern Oregon area where she worked as a dance teacher. Margaret's daughter was working in southern California. Tony was known in the family for his Irish stew (which he tried to make once a year or so) and his love of dogs. Tony's son had a dog named George who was very devoted to Tony. Often Jack would drop off George on his way to work, so that George could spend the day with Tony. As George got older, he would sometimes take off on his own, trying to find his way to Tony's house. One rainy night, George lost his way and got hit by a car in downtown Grants Pass.

While living in Grants Pass, Tony always kept a large vegetable garden in the back yard. They had many flowering plants also. Bleeding hearts grew on the side of the house, and in the back there was a yellow flowering forsythia bush, and a large snowball tree.

Tony also was a big story teller. It isn't known how much fact versus fiction were in the stories. He told his step granddaughter Janet that when he was a young boy he swallowed a rock, so worried that he would turn into a rock. He also told the tale of being a young child and getting a doll for Christmas. He was so upset that he got a doll, that he broke the doll before the day ended. He also taught Janet, as a baby, how to stick out her tongue, and tried to teach her to whistle, but she never was very good at it. They had a canary for a while, that Tony would whistle to, showing once again, how much he liked to be around animals.

Around the time that Tony's wife Margaret was placed in a nursing home, Tony moved to the Redwood's Hotel on 6th Street in downtown Grants Pass. This was a hotel that, at that time, had a lot of elderly people living there, and there was a restaurant on the first floor where the occupants, or anyone in town, could eat. Tony died on Feb. 28, 1967, and is buried at Hawthorne Memborial Gardens in Grants Pass. His daughter is buried next to him.

A privately published book on the Holt line had this to say about Tony:

"Anthony Melvin Holt was born June 29, 1883 in Wallace Township, and grew up there. On January 18, 1909 he married Agnes Gertrude Dailey at Devils Lake, N.D. She was born May 5, 1890. They had two children and were divorced. Anthony came back to Wallace Twp and took over his father's farm in 1938, until he sold it in 1951. He returned to the U.S.A. and married Margaret Janet McCauley and they lived at Grants Pass, Oregon."
