- Hamilton Wenham Chronicle (MA)
July 20, 2006
Lois S. (Elwell) Kinsella, 81, of Hamilton, wife of the late Stephen D. Kinsella, died July 15, 2006, at her home. Born and raised in West Gloucester, she was the daughter of the late Percy G. and Annie R. (Trumball) Elwell, both of Gloucester.
Mrs. Kinsella was a dedicated member of the Cape Ann Bible Church for many years and also attended the First Congregational Church of Hamilton.
In the 1950s, she and her husband owned and operated a diner in Hamilton square. They later opened Kinsella's Restaurant, where the Salem Five Bank is now located. They moved from their home on Arbor Street in Wenham to purchase a 17th-century house in Essex. After completing alterations, yet keeping its original charm, the Hearthside Restaurant was born. After 14 years of a reputation for simple elegance and hospitality from the heart, they decided to retire. They moved back to Hamilton and built a home.
Mrs. Kinsella enjoyed her bible study groups and her many trips, including her trip to Jerusalem. She took great pleasure traveling with dear friends and on numerous family vacations. She will be greatly missed by family and friends.
Surviving her are: two daughters, Marilyn Jeanne (Hotchkiss) Anderson and her husband, John E. and Anne M. (Kinsella) Day and her husband, David E., all of Hamilton; two granddaughters, Tanya Kehoe of Kensington, N.H. and Erika O'Neill of Lynn; three sisters, Barbara Roland of Magnolia and Anne Brown and Marion Dillard, both of Casa Grande, Ariz.; and several nieces and nephews.
She was also the sister of the late Bernice Elwell, Louise Seeley, May Johnson, Percy Elwell and John Elwell.
