Mr. Walter Weeks Obituary Source: Tillsonburg Observer newspaper Feb 11, 1914 pg 5 col 3
Mr. Walter Weeks, a pioneer of this district, died at his home in Middleton, near Tillsonburg on Tuesday, after an illness of two weeks.
Mr. Weeks, who was in his seventy-nineth year, was born in Dereham. About fifty years ago he purchased a homestead in Middleton, near town and in 1878 he married Miss Mary M. Foley of Dereham and they settled on the farm where Mr. Weeks resided over forty years. He was energetic and indsutrious and was remrakably healthy during his long life, never requiring the services of a doctor but once, about thirty years ago. He took the entire management of his farm and did his plowing last fall with an expertness and energy not surpassed by younger men.
His wife predeceased him fourteen years ago. He is survived by five sons, W. J. and Ed. M. of this town, Andrew of Middleton, John of Eden and Clarence D., who lives on the homestead, and one daughter, Mrs. Mark Ronson of Goshen, also by two brothers, Joseph of Dereham and Isaac of Tillsonburg.
The funeral took place this (Thursday) afternoon, the services being conducted by the Rev. Edwin Smith. The interment was made in the town cemetery.
