CORPORAL MERVYN NICHOLSON TATE
Former Wellander Killed
15 May 1890-12 September 1916
[People’s Press, 26 September 1916]
Word was received on Saturday by Henry Hederick from Mr. and Mrs. J.W. Tate, 69 Lakeview Ave. Toronto, announcing that their second son, Mervin Tate, had been killed in action in France. The family were residents of Welland town for about 15 years, during which time Mr. Tate was employed by M. Beatty & Sons. Ten years ago they moved to Toronto. Mervin Tate, who was about 26 years old, had only been in the trenches a short time. His younger brother, Fred, who was born in Welland, has been in the trenches as a sniper for some months. Mr. and Mrs. Tate will have the sympathy of their many friends here in the loss of their noble son.
