He was born in West Oxford [township], in 1841, the son of the late John Uren, who was a native of Cornwall, England, and who took up a homestead in West Oxford [township], in 1828 when all was a wilderness. E. W. Uren was married twice. To Mary Henderson, whose death occurred in 1888 and to Grace Hamlyn, who predeceased him 11 years ago. For years he was associated with the Ingersoll Agricultural Society and was always an enthusiastic student of horticulture and fruit growing. He was keenly interested in all activities that concerned the public welfare. He was a staunch supporter of temperance and an active church member for over 60 years, his church life dating from the time of the Wesleyan Methodist Church down to the United Church of today. He is survived by two daughters, Sadie at home, Mrs. Walter Badley, Port Hope; and two sons, A. E. Uren, Toronto; and R. N. Uren of Calgary, also four grandsons. Also left to mourn are 2 step sons, T. J. Hamlyn, London; and F. J. Toronto; and step-daughter, Mrs. J. A. Tracey, Georgetown and niece, Mrs. C. E. Rogers, Dorchester.
