Mr. Bryce was born in Ramsey County, Ontario, August 10th 1837, of Scottish parents, and grew to manhood there. In 1871 he was married to Miss Sarah Dalzell and seven children have been born to them, six of whom are still living. Four sons, Adam, Craig, James and John and two daughters Mrs. Wm. McQuarrie and Violet- all in or near Walhalla. Mr. Bryce and family came to Pembina County in 1888 and first settled in Leroy on the farm now occupied by Jos. Rassler, later buying the farm east of town upon which they lived up until about three years ago when they moved to Walhalla. Mr. Bryce was a tireless worker, a kind husband and father and respected by all who knew him, and the enmity of none.
