Note: The following two Obituaries provided to Catherine by DANNY KOUGHAN, [email protected]

Examiner May 8, 1902

It is with feelings of sorrow that we chronicle the death of Hannah Jennings, relict of the late Patrick Donnelly, which sad event took place at her home at St. Patricks Road on Sunday, April 27, ult., at the advanced age of 76 years.

Deceased was born in Glasgow, Scotland, in 1826, and emmigrated with her parents in 1830.

Mr. and Mrs. Donnelly were among the first settlers of the St. Patricks Road, and for many years had to endure very severe hardships. At that time they had no roads except mere footpaths, and their provisions and necessaries of life had to be carried home on their backs. But, by honest, industrious toil they succeeded in hewing out of the primeval forest a comfortable home, and here they brought up their large family of sons and daughters.

Mrs. Donnelly was of a cheerful disposition and delighted in extending the hospitality of her house to the wayfarer.

She was a dutiful wife, a kind loving mother, and her presence will be greatly missed in the home circle.

Fortified and consoled by the last rites of the Catholic Church, of which through life she had ever been a worthy and capable member, she passed peacefully away into that life beyond.

Where the wicked cease from troubling And the weary are at rest.

She leaves to mourn their loss five sons and seven daughters besides a large number of grand and great grand children. Her very largely attended funeral, which took place on Tuesday, April 29th, to St. Teresa Church, bore testimony of the high esteem in which she was held, there being upwards of sixty carriages in attendance. The pallbears were Messers Daniel MacDonald, Duncan Carmichael, Bernard Gillan, Thomas Connolly, Allen Grant and Francis P. Trainor. A requim high mass was sung by Rev. Ignatius McDonald, after which her mortal remains were borne to the adjoining cemetry and interred with usual ceremony.

Unknown Newspaper, 1901.

At the St. Patricks Road, on the 28th ult., Patrick Donnelly, in his 88th year. He devoutly received the last sacrements administered by his Pastor, Rev. Ignatius MacDonald, and was prepared for funeral summons by all the rites of our holy religion.

Deceased emigrated drom Ireland in 1839 and after living for a short time at Murray Harbour, at Donagh, whence he removed to St. Patricks Road.

When he settled there, the surrounding country was, for the most part, a wilderness, and he was obliged to stump a place on which to build a house for himself and family. He lived to see his family comfortably settled about him.

His interment took place at St. Teresas on the 30th and the large concorse of people that attended the funeral bore testimony to the esteem in which he had lived.

A high mass was celebrated by the pastor, after which his mortal remains were interred in the adjoining cemetry. He leaves to mourn, a widow, twelve children, sixty two grand children and 35 great children. May his soul rest in peace.
