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.
