  Obituary	Mr. Burton L. Maybee moved to Tottenham from Trenton in about 1909 and took over the furniture and undertaking business from the estate of Mr. W. J. Verney. His family consisted of his wife, Mary Knapp and three children, Margaret Honora E. [Percy Stanley], Fanny Helen [F. Clinton Craig] and William Howard [Mary Jane Stollery]. Another son Burton Maxwell [Isobel] was born in Tottenham. They lived for a year on Mill Street and then bought a home on Wilson St. At that time, there were no automobiles an very few telephones. All traffic was by horse, and whenever a death occurred, someone had to drive to the undertaker's and then he was driven to the home. Funerals were held from the home, as there was no funeral parlor. Automobiles appeared later. Mr. Maybee had about the first one in town. Mr. Maybee served on the town council for sometime and he and his family were active in the work of the Methodist Church. The family of Mr. Maybee was of Untied Empire Loyalist descent. They have records of their beginnings in France as early as 1518. From there, they went to Holland and then to New York. As they were Loyalists, they came to Canada in 1783 after the revolution. Mr. Maybee's father William Henry Maybee lived on a farm near Trenton. His brother Milton Edgar, was M.M.P. for Northumberland for a number of years. They are buried as are Mr. & Mrs. B.L. Maybee, the country cemetery of Carrican Church near Brighton. Mr. Maybee carried on business until 1917, when he became ill at the age of 49. His widow ran the business for a couple of years, when she sold it and moved her family to Toronto. In 1971, the daughter Honora [Mrs. Peter Stanley] moved with their family to Tottleham. Their daughter, Eillen married Thomas Little and they have two sons, Blake and Curits. They live at 29 Alphonsus Court. They also had a son Ronald Percy Stanley
