Mahone Bay News Bridgewater Bulletin January 14, 1930.

The death of Peter B. Zwicker, one of the oldest residents of this town, occurred at his home early this morning after a very short illness. In earlier years, Mr. Zwicker carried on a general store here and was also interested in milling and later operated a cooperage business but for a number of years past he had lived a retired life. He was 86 years of age and was the son of the late George Zwicker of Blockhouse. He is survived by one son and three daughters, Malcolm and Miss Nettie, both residing at home; Carrie (Mrs. W.M. Tufts), of this town; Hattie (Mrs. Henry Bezanson) in Minneapolis. Mrs. Tufts, who has been visiting in Minneapolis, and her daughter, Winnifred, of New York City, are on their way here.

With thanks to Rosemary Rafuse.
