Virginian Pilot and The Norfolk Landmark April 8, 1916
Archibald McGregor, 78 years old died in the Norfolk Protestant Hospital 
yesterday afternoon at 12:30 o'clock, as the result of a fall down the 
basement steps, in the early morning at the home of his daughter, Mrs. F.T. 
Etheridge, Rowland Heights, on the Money Point Road.
Mr. McGregor started to the basement to adjust the furnace fire and it is 
believed suffered an attack of vertigo, falling headlong down the steps, a 
distance of eight feet, landing on his head.
Dr. F. D. Wilson, of South Norfolk was called in and after aid sent Mr. 
McGregor to the hospital.
Mr. McGregor was in the best of health and on the day before attended the 
funeral of his fellow churchman, H.D. Wilcox, in Berkley.  He was a member 
of Armstrong Memorial Presbyterian Church and was held in the highest 
esteem.  He was a native of Scotland, but had spent most of his life in this 
country.  His wife died about four years ago, and he is survived by the 
following children:  Robert S. McGregor, Fundley, O.; Mrs. G.S. Wallace, 
Princess Anne County; Miss Elizabeth N. McGregor, of St. Paul, Minn.; and 
Mrs. F.T. Etheridge, of this section.
The funeral arrangements will be announced later.
