The Big Rapids Pioneer, Wednesday, August 9, 1882

Alexander Dalziel, the father of John, James, and Benjamin Dalziel, of Green 
township, this county, and Susan Dalziel and Mrs. Henry Barton, of Big 
Prairie, Newaygo county, died at the residence of Henry Barton of Big Prairie, 
on the 1st day of August, 1882, in the eighty-third year of his age.  Mr. 
Dalziel was a native of Wishaw, Scotland, and emigrated to this country over 
50 years ago.  He removed to Michigan when it was a territory, settling near 
Pontiac.  He afterwards removed to Ionia county, and subsequently to Big 
Prairie, Newaygo county.  He was one of the early pioneers of the Muskegon 
Valley, having lived here upwards of 30 years, and was known among the early 
settlers as “Uncle Alex.”  He was sick but a few days, and when the dread 
messenger came he passed away as quietly as if dropping to sleep.  His age was 
82 years and 4 months.
