     The following selected information is extracted from the obituary of John Mayhew Briscoe.
Predeceased: Janet Plaunte.3

     John Mayhew Briscoe was buried on 10 August 1961 at Rosebank United Church Cemetery (Lot 22, Conc 1), Admaston Twp., Renfrew County, Ontario, Canada.16,11,3
     John M. and Janet Briscoe appeared on the 1901 Canadian Census of Admaston Twp., Renfrew County, Ontario, enumerated 31 March 1901, described as a Methodist and a Merchant.. Their children: Annie Rae and Thomas Emerson, were listed as living with them. I cannot make out the enumerator's handwriting to determine what type of merchant he was.2
     The following newspaper article appeared in the book Reflections of a Century compiled by the Eganville Leader (2002) at Eganville at Ontario originally published 8 January 1932 :
The Briscoe Store at Northcote Burned
When Mr. John M. Briscoe of Northcote left his store for his home close at hand at 10:40 o'clock on the night of December 23rd, everything appeared to be in the usual order. Shortly afterward fire broke out in the store from a cause so far unknown. The building was a flat-roofed one with brick walls. The roof fell in; all stock was burned. There was a loss of $10,000, about half of it covered by insurance. A small building a few feet from the store occupied by Mr. Briscoe’s son, J.B. was also burned.

Forty feet away was the merchant's residence. This was unharmed in any way. A hedge of spruce trees between the store and the residence was also unharmed. No wind was blowing at the time.

Upstairs in the store were seventeen fine silver-fox pelts worth in all $900. These were entirely destroyed.17

     In the obituary of Charles Briscoe who died 6 April 1939, his brother, John M. Briscoe of Northcote, was listed as a survivor.18 On 30 August 1948, John Mayhew Briscoe certified the accuracy of information about the birth of his brother, Thomas W. Briscoe; A family bible and marriage record were presented as evidence.19
