History of the Lake Huron Shore
H. R. Page & Co., - 1883

        [279]

           JAMES PYNE was born in New Brunswick in 1823, and was married to
        ISABELLA CRAVEN, of that place in 1850, and came to Alcona County
        in 1870. He first worked for IVES, GREEN & Co., at lumbering for
        two years, and bought eighty acres in Section 28, of Alcona Town-
        ship, a part of which he cleared and commenced farming. He has a
        family of eight children, five boys and three girls, who are living
        in the township. MR. PYNE jobbed at lumbering successfully for
        several seasons for E. R. HAYNES & Co., of Alcona Township. Subse-
        quently he has lumbered for ALGER, SMITH & Co. at Black River, and
        has recently finished a large dwelling house on his farm, but did
        not live to enjoy the fruits of his hard labor, for on the 10th day
        of May, 1883, he died suddenly of disease of the heart, and was
        buried in Harrisville cemetery. He was a kind neighbor, a firm
        friend and an honest man. The large concourse of neighbors who
        attended the funeral attested to the respect in which he was held
        by the community where he had so long lived.
