Ionia Daily Sentinel Standard, 23 Jun 1937

Mrs. Mary Elizabeth Baird, 88, the daughter of Ionia county pioneers who was
born in Orleans township, died at the home of her sister, Mrs. A.J. Hemingway,
222 Lafayette street, Tuesday afternoon at 5:30 o’clock after she suffered a
heart attack earlier in the day.  Mrs. Baird had been in failing health since
January but was believed recovering and had walked downtown Monday.

She was born December 13, 1848, in Orleans township, the daughter of Julius
Jennings and Elsie Kidd.  After attending school in Orleans township she became

Baird.  The couple then moved to Missouri where they lived a short time, later
moving to Denver where Mr. Baird died in 1900.  Mrs. Baird returned in 1900 to
Ionia where she has since lived.  In 1931 she moved to the Hemingway home where
she died Tuesday afternoon.

Surviving besides her sister, Mrs. Hemingway, is one brother, Max Jennings, of
St. Clair.

Funeral services are to be held from the Hemingway home Friday afternoon at 3
