Born in 1891, Elsie lived in England until age 17, when she emigrated to Canada. Four years later, in 1912, Elsie married Ambrose O'Neill and lived on the O'Neill farm just north of Bradford, where they raised nine children.
Elsie celebrated her 100th birthday on Dec. 13, along with many family members including grand children and great grandchildren. The staff at The Today and Simcoe York Printing and Publishing send the O'Neill's [sic] our heartfelt sympathy.
