Ionia Sentinel Standard, 28 Jul 1937

David Austin McQuaid, 78, died at his farm home just north of the Minty farm 
Wednesday morning at 9 o’clock after an illness of the past two years when he 
suffered a stroke.  He had lived at the home where he died for the past 30 
years, where he dealt mostly in fruit products.

He was born in Canada December 11, 1858, and came to Michigan with his parents 
when little more than a year old.  In 1881 he was married at Greenville to Miss 
Mary Bennett. They lived for a short time at Carson City, and in 1893 moved to 
Ronald township, where they lived until buying the fruit farm in 1907.  He was 
a member of the Ionia lodge F.& A.M., and was a deacon of the Church of Christ.

Survivors are his wife, Mary; one daughter, Mrs. William Higgins, of Ronald 
township; three grandchildren, Mrs. Thomas Cobb, of Williamston; Mrs. James 
Moore, of Indianapolis, Ind., and Carl Higgins, of Ronald.

Funeral services will be held Saturday at 2 o’clock from the farm home north of 
Ionia on the Steele road.  Rev. C. A. Brady, of the Church of Christ, will 
officiate, with a Masonic burial service at the time of interment in the North 
Plains cemetery.
