The Ionia Sentinel-Standard, Monday, November 7, 1932
Civic, church, Masonic and political circles were saddened Monday by the death 
of William D. Robertson, 78, for over 40 years a resident of Ronald township.  
He was a native of Canada but came to this community with his parents, Mr. and 
Mrs. Duncan Robertson, while still  a small child, and had lived here since 
and until the beginning of his illness four years ago, was actively engaged in 
farming.

Early in his life he accepted the faith of the Church of Christ and for a long 
time held membership in the church at Woodard lake, later transferring his 
affiliation to the Ionia church, where he held the office of elder at the time 
of his death, and where he had been instrumental in promulgating its 
doctrines, both by his activities in the organization and the exemplary life 
that he lived in the community.

He was a member of the Masonic lodge.  He was a staunch republication and was 
serving as a supervisor when taken ill, his son, Ray, taking the post after 
the father was no longer able to carry on the work.  

Surviving are the widow; the son, Ray of Ronald township, two daughters, Mrs. 
Edith Pierson of Ronald, and Mrs. Sadie Cook of Ionia; and a brother, Henry of 
Ionia, and two brothers living about one mile apart.
