Recently I have tried to collect 19th century obituaries of Pelham residents. One brief obituary for Edwin R. Bertine of Pelham Manor appeared in the August 7, 1888 issue of the New-York Tribune. The text of that obituary appears immediately below.
"DIED. . . . .
BERTINE - On Sunday, August 5, 1886, at his late residence, Pelham Manor, N. Y., Edwin R. Bertine, in the 56th year of his age. Notice of funeral hereafter."
Source: Died. Bertine, New-York Tribune, Aug. 7, 1888, p. 5, col. 6.

Edwin Rodman Bertine was my great grandfather's (Josiah H. Bertine)older brother. He is buried in one of our family plots in Beechwoods Cemetery in New Rochelle. They lived on Split Rock Road, just off U.S. 1 in Perlam Manor. I know that he was a volunteer fireman with the fire department and my brother has his original fire helmet.
