  • Notes 
    • Sarah Lundy daughter of William Lundy
      His father, Joshua, Wilson, [ i.e. Joshua, The Third] was a son of a U.E. Loyalty, & settled in Whitchurch in 1821 & died in 1877. Our subject was married in 1861 to Mark Walks of Whitby Twp.; they have 4 children: Ella M., James A. Arthur E & Edgar. Agnes Randall.

      Sarah Lundy was John David Willson's first wife.

      John David Willson wrote the following Memorial for his late wife Sarah Lundy Willson:

      My spirit rent in twain, & I was but part, no Bride
      without the Bridegroom, nor Bridegroom without the Bride was like the mourning of my soul. I sought for rest & found none. I wept & knew not the cause.

      The pillow gave no rest to mine eyes, nor food contentment to my heart. I sought her spirit through all the watches of the night, & found her not. In vain I sought for her whom I would see. I mourned for a communication from her lips again. I mourned to know where she was, & what she had to communicate to me, for I could not live without her conversation. I drew near her bed, I thought I could discover a spark of life to move within her heart although her person was deceased. I put mine ear to her breast to know if I could discover any symptoms of life in her, whether spiritual or personal; I could discover nothing but the breaking of a bubble within her. In despair I left her & mourned again. Disconsolate, I returned to her person & thought I heard a language in her breast saying I will soon come to thee. (I had offered myself a sacrifice to death to be with her but unacceptable to God - I had to remain to weep).
