Ionia Daily Sentinel Standard, 14 Jan 1933

Mrs. Myra Minard, 86, died at the home of her daughter, Mrs. Florence Curie in
the LeValley apartments Saturday morning shortly after midnight of an illness
that began several years ago but became serious one year ago last June when she
was taken with a stroke.  This was at the home of a daughter who was living in
the state of Washington.  This summer the daughter came to Michigan, her former
home, with the mother.

Mrs. Minard was born in Wolcott, N.Y., and came to Lyons at the age of 17 to
live with her brother (unreadable first name) Hathaway, a lumberman, who owned
what is now the Dougherty home.  Her education was received in New York, and
after coming here, she taught in Pewamo, Lyons, and Muir.  In 1873 she married
John McQuillan, a native of Ireland, who had also taught in Ionia county schools
and was teaching for a time in the same school with Miss Hathaway and in the
same school where now their daughter, now Mrs. Currie taught.  Mr. McQuillan was
cashier of the Dougherty bank for several years. 

He died in about 1903 and five years later she married S. T. Minard, who has
been dead several years.  He was living in Ionia at the time of their marriage,
having been a retired farmer of Easton.  After his death she went to the home of
Mrs. Currie in the state of Washington.

She was a member of the SS. Peter and Paul church, where the funeral services
will be conducted Tuesday morning at 9 o’clock in S. Peter and Paul church. 
Burial will be in Mt. Olivet cemetery.  The body reposes at the Orin Stone
funeral home, 151 East Washington street, where it will remain until the funeral
services Tuesday morning.

Mrs. Minard leaves four children; the daughter in Ionia; John McQuillan,
Detroit; Ralph McQuillan, Seattle, Wash.; Lawrence McQuillan, Chicago; two
grandchildren, Kenneth Currie, of Ionia, and Catherine McQuillan, of the West. 
Another son, Arthur, died in infancy.
