    Obituary:
    Thamesford - Funeral services were held on Wednesday afternoon, October 14th, in the William Carrothers Funeral Home for the late Ransome Weeks of Lot 10, Concession 8, East Nissouri (township), Rev. D.W. Cosens of Kintore United Church officiated and interment was made in New Road Cemetery. Pallbearers were grandchildren, Robert Green, Ronald Hossack, Robert Garnum, Ronald Cowel, Jack Jasper and Glen Jasper. Surviving are three daughters, Mrs Spence Gilgour* (Doris) of Culloden; Mrs Winnie Cowel* of London and Mrs Garfield Jasper, of Simcoe and one son, Horace of East Nissouri (township); also 12 grandchildren.

    **I question some poss. errors in this transcription as I believe Doris married Norman Spence Kilgour; also a Minnie (not Winnie) Scanlon married James Cowell. Minnie Scanlon was a child of his wifes by a former marriage. No proof yet whether Ransom Weeks adopted these children as Minnie and Perceil were 7 yrs and 9 years at Ransom and Sarah Etta Partlo Scanlon's marriage ( HW.)
