Haldimand Obituary Mrs. John Ryan 1917

 There were two obits for Mrs. John Ryan. It's a sad reminder of how women were considered second-class citizens. She did not even get her own first name in her obituaries. 

She died April 20, 1917, age 76 in Caledonia, Norfolk County

 

The death registration on Ancestry provides her name as Nancy and states she died of senility  

A marriage took place in Norfolk County for Nancy Trimmer (daughter of Daniel and Jane) and John Ryan (parents John and Mary) on 3 April 1860
