Isaac S. Eby

Caption by Anne Eby Millar: "Gordon visited Uncle Isaac (another son of Isaac Eby) on Nov. 1st in New Hamburg. Uncle Isaac was a "Tunkert" and would not have his picture taken, but one day when he visited them Gordon took his picture without his knowledge. In 1914 Uncle Isaac's health was failing. He died in February, 1915."
"Tunkert" is possibly Tunker (Brethren in Christ) or Dunkard/Tunkard (Church of the Brethren). Isaac Eby had a Mennonite funeral and was buried at the First Mennonite cemetery, Berlin.

Isaac Eby farm near the Grand River

Caption in album by Anne Eby Millar: "War was declared Aug. 4. 1914. It seems as though he wanted to look back before going forward, when on Oct. 18th Gordon Eby stated in his diary that he wheeled out to Grandpa Eby's place and saw it for the first time. The Grandpa Isaac Eby farm was located where Grand River Collegiate, Kitchener now stands. Isaac Eby was the son of Bishop Benjamin Eby. Two days after this trip Gordon joined the city regiment and within less than a year he signed up for overseas duty.
Grandson of a Mennonite minister and baptized in the old "Eby's Church" in Kitchener, Gordon, like his father before him, became a soldier."
