ALICE ELIZA PHELPS
[Welland Tribune, 8 January 1909]
Mrs. John Phelps died on Thursday morning at the residence of Mrs. S.J. Sidey, Port Colborne, passing peacefully out of this life after a brief attack of pneumonia, which first seized her on Monday morning.
Not of robust health in recent years, she was never too busy or too tired to aid those who came to her, and in her passing out of Welland life, the town will indeed be poorer.
Mrs. Phelps was born in Grimsby and was the daughter of the late James Hindson. She was twice married, first wedding, William Tufford, and Miss Lena Tufford, Welland, is her daughter.
In 1880 she married John Phelps of Welland and leaves one daughter, Mrs. F.H. Sears, through this union. One sister survives: Mrs. S.J. Sidey, Port Colborne, and three brothers, William, Port Huron; James, St. Catharines; George of Rapid City, Michigan.
The funeral will be private.
