Lyons Herald, 2 Jul 1908

By the death of Mrs. Chisholm, Thursday, June 25th, one of the most aged 
residents has been removed from our midst.

The deceased, Janet MacDermid, was born in Scotland, Oct. 20th, 1826.  When a 
child she came to Canada with her parents, residing in Tilsonburg.  In 1844, 
she married Peter Chisholm.  Six children blessed this union, three of whom 
survive her: Mrs. Jas. Fraser, Lyons; Mrs. A. Buckborough, Hamilton, Ohio, Mrs. 
Robt. Smith, Cleveland, Ohio.

Mrs. Chisholm was well known in Lyons as “Grandma” to the younger people and as 
Aunty to the older.  She was a loving wife and a most devoted mother.  Hers was 
a life of loving kindness, doing good to all and cheerfully devoting her life 
to her children; and her death is most sincerely regretted.  Although she 
suffered for the past year, it was with great patience, and the peaceful death 
spoke only the beautiful life she lived.  

The funeral was held Saturday afternoon at 2 o’clock from her daughter’s home 
in Lyons.  Rev. H. E. Wylie officiated.  Interment in Lyons cemetery.
