The Ionia Daily Standard, Wednesday, November 9, 1892
Sunday evening, October 30th, 1892 Warren Fitzsimmons died at his home in this 
city after an illness of four months.  Mr. Fitzsimmons was born in the state 
of New York, Allegheny County, May 10th, 1833.  His early life was spent on a 
farm, but wishing to learn a trade, at the age of 22 he went to Dundee, New 
York where he learned the miller’s trade.  At the age of 23 he came to Ionia 
county, Michigan where he has resided ever since, being one of the early 
pioneers.  He was married June 28th, 1864 to Mrs. Harriet Louise Gleason, a 
widow with a son and two daughters.  From this marriage were two children, Ida 
and Walter, both living.

For 23 years he was a miller in the City Mills, a man well known and respected 
by all who knew him.  He was upright, honest, and best known for his kindness 
in his own home.  He was patient in his affliction and ready and willing to 
die.  Two brothers, Calvin and Walter, survive him, and while the children 
mourn the loss of a kind father, the wife a dear companion, the community 
mourn for one who has been upright in his dealings, and when we consigned him 
to his last resting place, we said “Peace to his soul.”

Messrs. Calvin and Walter Fitzsimmons, brothers of the last Warren 
Fitzsimmons, and Mr. Ira Chubb, a cousin, all of the state of New York, have 
returned home.
