At Appleton, Nov 6th, Margaret Bryson, wife of Mr Andrew Wilson, sen., in her 81st year. Funeral on Friday at 1:30 p.m., to the Eighth Line Cemetery, Ramsay.

1901, Friday November 8, The Almonte Gazette front page
Mrs Andrew Wilson
The news of the death of Mrs Andrew Wilson, sen., of Appleton, will be learned with deep regret by many. Mrs Wilson had not enjoyed the most robust health for some time, and of late her condition was the cause of a good deal of anxiety to her friends. As the days passed it became evident that serious inroads were being made upon her vitality. Quietly and patiently she bore her illness until death brought her release on Wednesday last. The deceased was a daughter of the late James Bryson, and was born on board the ship on which her parents came to Canada in 1821. They settled on the 11th line of Ramsay, on the farm now owned by Mr John Neilson, where as Margaret Bryson, she lived until her marriage to Mr Wilson in 1843. Her home since then has been at Appleton ?until a few years ago on the farm owned by Mr Wilson adjoining the village, and of late years in the village. Of a family of four children two are still living ? James, on the farm, and Mary, who has been her mother's constant attendant during her declining years. Mrs Baird, of Almonte, is a sister of deceased, and the only surviving member of the family. Mrs Wilson was quiet and unassuming in her manner, but her uniformly kind disposition won for her many friends. She was a member of the Presbyterian church for many years, and her every day life was in full accord with the profession she made. The family and friends have the sympathy of the whole community in their bereavement. The funeral take place today (Friday) to the eighth line cemetery, Ramsay.

Margaret married Andrew Wilson in 1843. Andrew (son of James Wilson, son of James Wilson and Margaret Baird) was born on 17 Feb 1819 in Airdrie or New Monkland, North Lanarkshire, Scotland; was christened on 12 Mar 1820 in Airdrie or New Monkland, North Lanarkshire, Scotland; died on 23 Dec 1904 in Appleton, Ramsay Twp, Lanark County, Ontario, Canada; was buried in Auld Kirk Cemetery, Mississippi Mills, Lanark County, Ontario, Canada.

At Almonte, June 12th, Robert Bryson, aged 83 years.

1900, Friday June 15, The Almonte Gazette front page
The late Robert Bryson
Almonte lost one of its oldest and most respected citizens on Tuesday evening by the death of Mr Robert Bryson, of Union street, eight weeks after he was stricken with the illness that carried him away. It was of a dropsical nature, though the infirmities of age combined to make his recovery impossible. The late Mr Bryson was born in Paisley, Scotland, eighty-three years ago, and came to Canada with his parents (the late Mr and Mrs James Bryson) in 1821. Mr B. being a child of four years. They settled the same year on the old Bryson homestead in Ramsay ? the farm now occupied by Mr John Neilson ? and that was the home of Mr Bryson from that time until the year 1873, when, having amassed a competence, Mr and Mrs Bryson moved into Almonte, and have lived here ever since; so that Mr Bryson was a continuous resident of this neighbourhood for almost eighty years, witnessing and doing his share in the transformation of the primigenious forest into the present prosperous and well-tilled farms and happy homes of this district. In the forties and fifties deceased was engaged with his brother (the late Hon. Geo Bryson, of Fort Coulonge) in the lumbering operations in this section, in which he was highly successful. In 1846 he was united in marriage with Janet Carswell, who survives him, and who during his illness was devotion itself. After fifty-four years of happy married life it is needless to say that Mrs Bryson feels her loss most keenly. They have no family. The late Mr Bryson was a Presbyterian in religion and a Liberal in politics. He was of a genial turn, though quiet in disposition, and was a warm-hearted friend and a good neighbour. Like most of the pioneers, he delighted in recalling the early days, and was never tired talking over incidents that occurred in this section before the advent of the telegraph line or the railway, and when newspaper were not in demand as they are today ? the "good old days," when there was less of the hurry and bustle and more time for social intercourse than there is to-day. For years past he was largely a prisoner at home for physical reasons. A good citizen, his death is regretted by all who knew him. The funeral took place this (Thursday) afternoon, to the eighth line cemetery, and was largely attended. Rev Mr Mitchell conducted the services. Among those who came from a distance to attend the funeral were Hon Geo Bryson, Geo Bryson, jun., Mrs Bryson and Mrs Boulter, of Fort Coulonge; Senator Templeman and Mrs Templeman, from Ottawa; Mrs Geo Carswell and sons, of Calumet Island; and Mrs Jas Carswell, of Bryson.

Robert married Janet Carswell on 6 Feb 1846 in Ramsay Twp, Lanark County, Ontario, Canada. Janet was born in 1826 in Paisley, Renfrewshire, Scotland; died on 5 Dec 1914 in Campbell's Bay, Litchfield Twp, Pontiac County, Quebec, Canada; was buried on 8 Dec 1914 in Auld Kirk Cemetery, Mississippi Mills, Lanark County, Ontario, Canada.
