| GRAHAM, JAMES
(1806-1882) Memorial Notice
Contributed by Frank Queen
MEMORIAL NOTICES - James Graham, Sr.
Exchanged the associations of earth for the higher and purer
fellowship of heaven on the 6th day of June last, and in the 78th year
of his age. He emigrated in 1829 from Fermanagh, Ireland , to New
Brunswick, settling in the Parish of Petersville, where he has not only
been an industrious and honest citizen, but a devoted Christian and
useful member of the Methodist church in that place. Bro. Graham was
converted in the 16th year of his age, before he came to this country,
and several years after his arrival was appointed class leader, which
office he continued to fill with great acceptance till the infirmities
of age forbade him that privilege. He also filled other important
offices in the church. Chiefly through his exertions and liberality was
our church at Petersville built, which will soon be superseded by a
one now in course of erection. Through his affliction of over six months
he was not known to murmur or complain; his clear evidence of his
acceptance in the Beloved not only sustained him but made his happy and
triumphant in death. A great number of people attended the funeral and
listened to a very able and appropriate discourse by the resident
minister from 2 Sam. 111. 38. He was great as regards his hospitality,
his house was open to the stranger and was always a welcome and
comfortable home for the Methodist itinerant. He was a great reader, he
loved good books, the Bible, hymn book and Wesley's works were his daily
companions. He was great in his love for God's house and his people. The
Word was sweet unto his taste, sweeter than honey and honey comb.
Enjoying this privileges of the sanctuary he did not do so at others
expense; right generously did he support the minister and contribute to
connexioual funds. He was good in all the relations of life. The wish so
often expressed to the writer for reunion with the partner of youth and
other members of his family is at length realized, Thankful are we to
record that the surviving members of his family and their children are
following in the footsteps of their now allotted sire.

MCKIM, GEORGE - one of the pioneer settlers of the Parish of
Petersville died on Dec. 8 1898 at the ripe age of 82 years and was buried on the 10th in the
Lyon Burying Ground. Mr. McKim was a native of Sligo Ireland and with his
parents came to this country when seven years of age. The family lived one
year and a half in Saint John and then moved to the farm now occupied by Mr.
Stewart McKinney, near the Presbyterian Church, Petersville and then after a
year moved to the neighborhood of Armstrongs Corner, where a large tract of
land was secured and a house erected near where Mrs Walker now lives, the
subject of this sketch being nine years old. Subsequently another house was built on the part of the farm overlooking the
beautiful Nerepis Valley. Here Mr. George McKim spent his manhood days and
here he died. When young he joined the Methodist Church and was a member at
the time of his death. He married 55 years ago Miss Isabella South of
Westfield who survives him. They had a family of thirteen children of whom
four are now living, William and James who are living on adjacent farms on the
homestead and Mary who married Mr. Fred Graham of Coote Hill and Eliza who
married Mr. Thomas Allen Graham near Fairville. The funeral was largely
attended, the service being conducted by the Rev. A D McCully. The text on the
occasion Psalms 116:15, "Precious is the sight of the Lord in the death of His
Saint" was chosen by Mr. McKim himself sometime before his death. When he came
to this country he found it an almost unbroken forest , now it is one of the
most thickly settled and prosperous parts of our province. The present
generation little knows how much it owes to men, who like Mr. McKim, were the
first settlers of our country.

Coote Hill for about 54 years, unless prevented by illness, or
increasing infirmities inconsequent of old age. His place at the
sanctuary was not often vacant, and even up to a few weeks of his
death, his voice was heard in the house of God, in prayer and
praise. He often spoke to his pastor (sometimes amid great
suffering), as God as his reconciled father. For him to die was
gain. On the 15th, his remains were followed by a large concourse of
people, when the occasion was approved by the pastor of the church.
By the deceased own request, the first verse of the 40th Psalm
was read, after which he was laid to rest in the silent tomb, to
await the resurrection of the Just. |

PENDER, JOHN (Father of James Pender of the Nail Factory Story.)
"The death occurred Thursday at his residence, Main street, of Mr. John
Pender, well and favorably known to a large number in the city, and throughout
the province. Mr. Pender was born in Glasgow, Scotland, in 1809, and came to
this country with his father, the late James Pender, in 1820. After a short
residence in St. John, where he did business, James Pender secured a grant of
land in Petersville, Queens County, and moved there with his family. The
Pender family were counted among the most industrious in the neighborhood. In
addition to the work on the farm they built wagons and sleds, and the late
John Pender when a young man, erected the most extensive grist mill in that
section of the country. The original mill was destroyed by fire, but on its
site was constructed another and a better mill, to which was added a carding
machine, which was also burned a few years ago.
In 1845 he married Jane, daughter of the late William Christie of Kings
County, and sister of Drs. James and William, and Alexander Christie of this
city. She died three years ago. Ten years ago Mr. Pender retired from business and disposed of his
property in Petersville and came to St. John to reside. He was well informed
on the early history of the province, and his descriptions of pioneer life in
New Brunswick were always interesting.
Quite a large family survive him. His eldest son is James Pender of the
James Pender Nail Company. Two sons, John and William. and two daughters,
Annie and Sarah reside in Melbourne, Australia. William is now on a visit to
New Brunswick. Miss Pender, with whom he lived, also survives. One son and one
daughter died before him. Mrs. A.G. Bowes of this city, Mrs. Hugh Miller
and Mrs. John Young, both of Glassville, Carleton county are sisters."

Bill Schwetz Tribute
From the Saint John Telegraph Journal, Aug.
12, 2009
CORN HILL - Bill Schwetz always made friends
easily, even when they ere of the
four-legged variety. He made the childhood
relationships he created last a lifetime,
and when he farmed in Corn Hill, he
extended his love to his animals. "He just
loved animals," said Marilyn, his wife of 42
years. Bill would name them all, she said,
and would be heartbroken when it was time
for slaughtering. "He could go to the pasture and the cows
followed him around. He could put his arms
around any one of them and they would stay
so calm," she said of the Holsteins that
Bill considered pets.The retired dairy
farmer died on Aug. 3 at the age of 71. It was in 1976 when the Schwetz family sold
the farm."Things changed then in farming,"
Marilyn explained. "The small family
farm became a thing of the past, almost. You
had to be really big or not at all. "Bill
always missed the animals and working the
land and haying, he had a real love for it.
He always considered himself a farmer even
though in later years he didn't farm
anymore." Bill was born in Summer Hill, Queens County.
He stayed on his family's farm until he
turned 15, when the land was expropriated,
and today, that same family homestead is
long gone. "Where he was born is smack dab in the
middle of what is now Camp Gagetown,"
Marilyn said. "In some ways he still
considered that home. The friendships he made when he lived there
continued to the day he died. "He always
liked to go back, and even though the
buildings were gone, he knew by the lay of
the land and the trees where every driveway
and house once sat. He knew every inch of
it." In 1962 Bill met Marilyn Kyle, the girl
next door to his family's new Corn Hill farm
(which he eventually took over), while she
was training to be a nurse. They married
four years later and had a daughter and son,
Katrina and Stephen. "We did everything together," Marilyn said.
"We fished and hunted and toured around - we
had a wonderful life." After Bill sold the farm he began working as
a machine operator at Sussex Concentrates,
where he remained until it closed in 1990 During his life Bill enjoyed his family
first, and had a real passion for hunting
and fishing, but especially cars. In the
mid-1980s he bought a 1956 Chev Belair,
which he loved to show off in many car shows
around the province, and later became a
member of the New Brunswick Antique Auto
Club He had a great memory for dates and
events, Marilyn said, and had an incredible
ear for music, especially country and
western. He even taught himself to play the
accordion at an early age, she added, and he
only had to hear a tune once before he was able
to play it During his retirement, he
cherished moments with his two
grandchildren, Charlie and Brady, and made it a priority to
share time and stories with lifelong
friends, and forging new ones. "Bill was the type of man who would just
talk to anyone, and everyone liked him,"
Marilyn said. Last year, she added, when
Bill was not well, he would accompany her to
Sussex and sit in the car while she got
groceries. "Invariably, when I came out of
the store, he would be talking to someone -
usually someone he had never met before,"
she said. "He was so outgoing and had a real
interest in people."

to play nearly every Sunday for the next 29 years. Sylvia also loved to dance
and attended local dances where she excelled at square dancing. In 2000 she
moved to the Gagetown Special Care Home, where she quickly became one of the
favorite tenants, and, where she received wonderful care for the last seven
years. Her great sense of humour helped her maintain a very optimistic
attitude all her life and was evident right up to her final days.
