JOHN JARDINE
[Welland Tribune, 26 March 1897]
John Jardine Killed- We learn that John Jardine, electrician, was accidently killed at Niagara Falls, N.Y., where he worked on Wednesday night, by an electrical shock caused by coming in contact with live wires. Mr. Jardine was for years a resident of this town, employed by the electric light company. He leaves a widow, daughter of Reuben Doan, formerly of this place, and several young children to mourn their sudden and irreparable loss.
I wonder if he was born in Aberdeen Scotland, my grandfather had several brothers who emigrated to Canada in the late 1880s?
Hello George
Good luck with your search. If I see the name Jardine again I will add it to the site. We appreciate all comments that help make Welland County’s past so interesting. Thank you.B
