HENRY): THE IONIA SENTINEL STANDARD, MI, 2-4-1931, front page: "Mortuary - Mrs. Jane Tremayne - Ionia lost one of its older residents Tuesday evening in the passing of Mrs. Jane Tremayne, 87, of 527 West Main street. Death came quietly at her home after an illness of several weeks following a stroke. The funteral services will be conducted from the home Thursday afternoon at 2:30 by Rev. Edwin G. White. Interment will be made in the Highland Park cemetery. Mrs. Tremayne was the widow of the late Dr. Henry Tremayne, who came to Ionia many years ago and established a practice at Tremayne's corners, south of Ionia, which still bears his name. She was born in Longtown, county Leeds, Ont., and came to Ionia county with her husband when he took up the practice of his profession in this vicinity. Early in life she affiliated with St. John's Episcopal church and was known to be kindly and devout, and throughout her life symbolized the Christianity which constituted her faith and made her life one of gracious affection. Surviving is the daughter, Mrs. A. M. Welch; a son, Henry M. Tremayne, of Grand Rapids, who is spending the winter in California and will not be able to come to Michigan for the funeral services because of his sickness; three grandsons, Henry, John and Palmer Welch; two grandsons, Douglas Welch and Amos Welch, and two granddaughters, Emma Jane Welch and Jane Caroline Welch." THE IONIA SENTINEL STANDARD, MI, 2-6-1931, front page: "Mortuary - Mrs. Jane Tremayne - Thursday afternoon at 2 o'clock Rev. Edwin G. White conducted the Episcopal burial service for Mrs. Jane Tremayne who died Tuesday evening. The services were held at the home on West Main street, and the interment followed in the Highland Park cemetery. There were but few old persons present for the services, for this widow of the pioneer physician had outlived the associates of her youth, and the most of those of her middle age, but there were many there of the younger generation who learned to love her through the contacts of her later life. Grandsons, Henry, John, and Palmer Welch, and great-grandson, Amos Welch, Jr. acted as bearers. Miss Evelyn Johnson and Mr. and Mrs. Palmer Welch were those here from out of town to attend."
