10. William W. Walker Sr. b. 17 Mar 1701 Clones, Monaghan, Ireland d. Jun 1869 Hillsborough, Orange County, NC m., Rose Mary Rosborough.
FAMILY AND DNA NOTE: I wish to thank David Walker davwal@netease.net for sharing his family history which was written down by his father, William Pinckney Walker Jr. in 1961. Some time after 1869, Aaron H. Walker wrote in his biography: "My ancestors as far back as I can learn came from Ireland and settled in Maryland in or about what year, I have never been able to learn - only that it was before the war for Independence. My Great Grandfather was named John, and in company with one of his brothers, Philip, moved and settled in Orange County, N.C., about 10 miles North West of Hillsborough before the Revolutionary War and as a soldier took part in it on the side of the Colonies, and for Independence. My Great Grandfather John married a Miss Ashford and they had eleven sons, but no daughters. My (Aaron Walker) parents raised three sons and four daughters.

FAMILY HISTORY: HILLSBOROUGH, LITTLE RIVER, ORANGE COUNTY, NORTH CAROLINA: In June 1965 Hugh Conway Browning held a long conversation with Mr. George Walker, born in 1888, son of Thomas Walker, grandson of Phillip Walker, great grandson of Robert Walker, and great-great grandson of William Walker. Mr. George Walker related that as a youngster his grandfather had told him a great number of items relating to his family history. Among them being that William Walker Sr, the first of his family in this area, came to Hillsborough, Little River, Orange County, North Carolina around 1767, from Canada. William returned to Canada taking with him all members of his family except his son, Robert, who on April 18, 1791, married Eleanor Latta, a daughter of John Latta, Sr. The residence of Mr. George Walker is located in the Schley-Caldwell area of Orange County, north of the present day road which runs by New Sharon Church and continues to the intersection of this road and the Guess Road at Hopkins Cross Roads. This was the home place of his great grand father, Robert Walker. The house was built for Robert by a man named Hanks about the time that Phillip Walker, (George Walker's grandfather) was four years of age, which indicates that the house was built about 1814. According to a note written by Miss Myrtle Walker, sister of George Thomas Walker, Robert (poss. meant William Walker b.1743?) Walker came from England to Canada, then from Canada to North Carolina on two horses.
Land Transaction Records:
1. In a deed dated 15 Nov 1784, Barney Grimes and Mary his wife, conveyed to William Walker 100 acres of land located on the south branch of Little River, it being part of a 360 acre tract of land granted to Thomas Perkins by John, Earl of Granville, 6 Dec 1761.
2. In a deed dated 3 Jul 1787, Thomas Riggs conveyed to William Walker 100 acres of land located on the waters of Little River.
3. In a deed dated 7 Apr 1788, Alexander Hunter and Susannah his wife, conveyed to William Walker 200 acres located on the south side of the North Fork of Little River.
4. In a deed dated 30 Dec 1789, James Riggs conveyed to William Walker 100 acres of land located on the waters of Little River.
5. In a deed dated 14 Dec 1791, John Mitchell and Elizabeth his wife, conveyed to William Walker 213 acres of land located on the waters of Eno River.
6. In a deed dated 30 Aug 1793, William Walker conveyed this tract of land to Levi Whitehead (Whitted?).
7. In a deed dated 28 Nov 1793, William Walker conveyed this tract of land to William Dunnegan.
8. In a deed dated 17 Feb 1794, William Walker conveyed this tract of land to William Roark.
9. In a deed dated 22 Apr 1794, William Walker conveyed this tract of land to Robert Walker.
10. In a deed dated 22 Apr 1794, William Walker conveyed this tract of land to Robert Walker.
The aforementioned land transactions indicates that the known land purchases in Orange County, North Carolina were in November 1784 by William Walker Sr. Also, that he purchased other tracts of land in the years that followed. The probability is that William Sr came into Orange County around 1767, his eldest son Robert, was born in 1767 in North Carolina, and that William disposed of his real estate holdings not later the April 1794. It is also noted that the two April 1794 land transactions were to his eldest son Robert. According to a note written by Miss Myrtle Walker, sister of George Thomas Walker, Robert (poss. meant William Sr. ?) Walker came from England to Canada, then from Canada to North Carolina on two horses. This was about the time William left Orange County, North Carolina to Canada.
FAMILY HISTORY: GRIMSBY, CLINTON AND NORFOLK COUNTIES, ONTARIO, CANADA: William Walker Sr. served in the British army under Lord Cornwallis. The Ontario land granted, No. 139, to William Walker Sr. was located in Lincoln County, Grimsby Township on Con VII Lots 11, 13, 14, 15, 16 and 17. Later the map of Clinton township, shows William Walker Sr. had also owned land on Con B, F and I Lots 19 and 20 on the shore of Lake Ontario. This land was at the end of Thirty Road, which at that time was known as "The Harbour", a port of call for lake boats for many years. He named his home "Walker Hall", which still stands on the shore of Lake Ontario on the original Crown lands granted to him in 1794 where he lived until his death in 1819. His grandson, John S. Walker, built onto the Hall in 1848. The Hall still exists as a Teashop and is no longer owned by the Walker family. William Walker is credited by some with having been Clinton township's first settler. He was active in the social and business life of both Clinton and Grimsby townships. In 1804, William was recorded as one of five "Freeholders" to choose two representatives of the district to run for members of the Assembly of Upper Canada and his name was on the voters list of 1812, 1816, and on all subscription lists for the building of the first church in Grimsby township.
Around 1793, William Walker Sr., with his wife Sarah, nine of their children, David and Elizabeth Palmer's family, and the widow Margaret McCool's with her family came to Ontario, Canada.
William's petition for land grants:
Dated 10 July 1794 (W 1/9) - William Walker Sr. states that he has "Just arrived with his Family", (eleven in number, four of which are men able to bear Arms), from North Carolina, has suffered everything but Death by the American Revolution, had property in Land, 800 acres all of which was taken from him and Sold by the Rebels ( that were then Stiled); OC - Recommended. Grant No. 139.
Further "He begs leave to inform your Excellency that he faithfully adhered to the British Government and can procure Witnesses of his Loyalty. He now prays for an allotment of Land adequate to his Family and does hope you will please to consider his long travel near 1000 miles and give him a grant that he may immediately improve, for his further subsistence or such other relief as that your Wisdom may seem meet and your Petitioner will ever pray"; OC - Ordered that the petitioner and his family have a grant of 1200 acres.
On 13 May 1796 (W 2/46) late of North Carolina; came 2 years ago; has wife and 10 children; received 1200 acres; was in the army of Lord Cornwallis; lost all his property, both real and personal; lost 800 acres of Land; has expended upwards of L700 to raise sufficient supplies for his family; requested additional lands at the Long Point Settlement; OC - If the petitioner's children are of age they will receive lands in their own right. Rec 8 Nov 1799 (W Misc 1796 - 1815/34) - the following have been on their lots at Townsend about 3 years and have from 10 acres upwards cleared: Ralph Walker; Isaac Walker; William Walker Jr; John Walker; Sarah Walker m., Joseph McCool; Margaret Walker m., William McCool; Thomas Walker; Ann Walker m., John Henry; Philip Walker. (Between the years 1861 through 1890, several of the children of those named in the above record moved their families to Kent, Montcalm, Ionia, and Saginaw Counties, Michigan.)
RESEARCH NOTE: The following Will was transcribed from a photocopy of the original hand-written Will of William Walker Sr. The photocopy was somewhat difficult to transcribe and errors were inevitable due to some guesswork in reading it.

HISTORY NOTE: Lost Creek Township "History of Parke and Vigo Counties-- 1880" by H.W. Beckwith. -- "The first settlers arrived in this township about 1820, settling near the west center of town, among the first being John Colton, Daniel and John Jenks, Antony Connor, and William Phillips, while further south were Moore and George Hussey. In 1825 Zadoc Reeves located in the Jenks settlement, having come from Carlisle, where he had settled in 1819, to build a distillery for Jenks, he being a carpenter and millwright. Another old settler, and probably the first one, was Matthew Gray, who devoted his time entirely to hunting, following that as his sole means of livelihood. His wife used to wear shoes made of untanned hog skin, and his own garments were nearly all trophies of his success in the chase. Shortly after the arrival of Reeves came Sylvester Ripley, Isaac Kruzan, Thomas Patterson, James Watson, Joseph Hoskins, Ralph Wilson, the Montgomerys, Moody Chamberlain and Hulse, and a little later, 1835, arrived the Dickerson family and Peter Collins, who settled toward the east side of the township. These were shortly followed by Silas Pierce, John Harper, Isaac Hall and Alfred B Pegg. The last named was the builder and owner of the Round House, or, rather, Octagon House, from which the trading point known as Round House Corners takes its name."

FAMILY NOTE: We would like to extend our thanks to W. Kemp Walker in North Carolina for his family memories. He writes: "I see you found some records on John Carden. He did marry the daughter of William R. Walker Sr. but there is a confusing twist with him. I had for some time been confused about her name, was it Sarah or Sallie. Her name is Sarah but she was often referred to as Sallie. You may already know, I m not sure, but the Mary listed in the 1900 census, as John s wife is his second wife. Sarah died in 1892. It confused me for a long time because my father spoke of an Uncle John and Aunt Miss Carden. I knew this couldn t be his aunt because she died of course long before he was born. But John Carden was still living on the Walker farm with his second wife when my father was born and lived there until he died in 1938. Mary his second wife died in 1940."

The undertaker was E. G. Wilcox of Waterford and the return was made on the 1st of April 1923.
OBITUARY: Mr. Walker Messecar died at his home on Wednesday afternoon of last week. He was 83 years of age and among the oldest residents of the district and a descendent of the United Empire Loyalists, Abram and John Messecar, who came to Townsend in 1871, from Northern New Jersey. Abram settled on the farm just north of Waterford, and John at Rockford where he conducted a flower mill. Deceased was the oldest of the family of eight, all of whom have passed away. Mr. Messecar married Mary Chart in 1853 and they started farming on the old homestead north of Waterford. To them were born three children, Ernest Messecar of Townsend, Mrs. J. A. Sutherland of London, and Dr. F. H. Messecar of New York. For over 25 years he was assessor and collector for the Township of Townsend and in 1884 he quit farming and went into the insurance business, having written his last policy three days before his death. He was a life-long Liberal and always took a great deal of interest in the political campaigns, especially those of fifty years ago, when Hon. John Charlton represented North Norfolk in the Federal House. He was a member of the Waterford Public School Board for a number of years and Worshipful Master of Wilson Lodge, No. 113, A. F. & A. M., for seven years from 1887 to 1893. He was a life-long member of the Waterford Baptist Church. Deceased was a man of generous impulses and never forgot the hospitable ways of the pioneer. He had borne adversity bravely and enjoyed prosperity quietly. He had filled the various relations of life as son, husband, father, brother, friend and filled them all well. Who can do more? The funeral was held from his late residence on Sunday afternoon, the service being conducted by his pastor Rev. J.D. MacLackin. Mr. T.C. Savage sang "In the Beautiful Land", unaccompanied. Beautiful flowers testified to the esteem in which the deceased was held. The service at the grave was conducted by about forty of his brothers of Wilson Lodge, No. 113, A. F. & A. M., and was most impressive. "The silver cord is loosed, the golden bowl is broken, the dust has returned to the earth as it was; the spirit has returned to God who gave it. The brother who remembered the Creator in the days of his youth, ere the evils days came, or the years drew nigh when he should say "I have no pleasure in them," has finished his course and reached the heavenly goal in the race of life."

The leaving of the old homestead, where Mr. Walker was born and with every incident of his own and his father's life before him is interwoven in some way, prints an expression of sorrow on their faces which will last for a long while. We sympathize with the feeling which is made no easier by the fact that age, health and other circumstances have made the move necessary and we hope they may live long to enjoy the fruits of their toil.

HISTORICAL NOTE: "Historical Sketch of Villa Nova" Handwritten: 1954 by (author unknown) -- In the spring of 1850, or 104 years ago, the Regular Baptist Church was organized with twenty seven charter members. At the first covenant meeting thirteen days later when twenty two members were present Elder Jacob Goble was chosen as the first pastor or chairman of the newly organized church. There were several saw mills on the banks of the creek, one owned by Squire William Walker in front of Austin Smith's house. He (William Walker) lived where (Jno ?) Hockens (in 1954) lives, and was a magistrate and was the man who gave the property for the old cemetery. He (William Walker) was the first school teacher that Waterford had. The first store was owned and managed by John McLaren Sr. and stood on the corner across from the blacksmith shop which was owned and run by Mr. (Larson?). (----?) a store was built on the site where our present one stands and was owned by James Erskine. I wonder how many know that Villa Nova once had a Rifle Company (the rest unreadable). After the Finian Raid in 1866, Mr. John McLaren Sr. (the rest is unreadable).

ANNIVERSARY: 60th Wedding Anniversary (1931) - On Saturday afternoon, from 3 to 6 p.m., the home of Mr. and Mrs. John McLaren, Villa Nova, was the scene of a very happy gathering of old and new friends, who graciously accepted the invitation of the Women's Institute, through the columns of the Waterford Star, Simcoe Reformer and Brantford Expositor, to attend the reception held in honor of the bride and groom of sixty years, who are held in the highest esteem in the community. A warm welcome was extended to all as they entered the open door by their daughters, Mrs. Wm. Heath of Bloomsburg, Mrs. Herbert Cunningham of Delhi, Mrs. Wm. Kerr of Detroit, and Mrs. Minnie Erwin of Villa Nova. The guests entered the living room adorned with beautiful roses, the gifts of Mr. and Mrs. R. J. Penhall, Port Dover and the Villa Nova Baptist Church, to offer their congratulations to Mr. and Mrs. McLaren, whose faces beamed radiantly with joy, as they greeted their many friends. Sitting with them was Mrs. Darling Smith of Townsend Centre, who attended the wedding in 1871. Miss Edna McLaren of Chicago, and Mrs. Wilton Honey of Villa Nova, invited the guests to the dining room, which was beautifully decorated with mums, gifts of the Women's Institute and Mr. and Mrs. H. W. Foster of Scotland. The table was centered with the wedding cake, which was a marvel of beauty, being iced by the bride, and tall tapering yellow candles in their silver holders. Mrs. Wm. Galer, Mrs. Wm. Swanton, Mrs. W. W. Smith and Mrs. W. M. Goble poured tea. The guests, numbering 125, were served by Miss Lulu Heath and Mrs. Cuttings of Simcoe, granddaughters. The committee in charge were Mrs. Wallace Galer, Mrs. Morley Ward, Mrs. G. Witham and Mrs. James Burgess. Mr. McLaren is a son of the late John McLaren, who came to this once most thriving village and erected sawmills. Some of the timbers which grew on the farm now owned by Mr. J. McLaren, measured 6 feet at the butt, and were 100 feet long, and were taken over the plank roads to Dover, to be used for ship masts. The late John McLarens came from hear Edinburgh, Scotland, to Canada on a sailing vessel, taking six weeks to make the journey. His wife was of Irish descent. A beautiful painting of a scene near the home of the late John McLaren, near Edinburgh, was painted and presented to Mr. and Mrs. McLaren, by their granddaughter, Miss Loreen McLaren of London. Mr. McLaren resides in the home of his birth. Mrs. McLaren is the youngest daughter of the late John Walker, who with his brother, William Walker, came to this village when it was a forest, and made a home, which later became the home of his only son, Lewis. Fine daughters were reared in this home, to the number of four. John McLaren and Sylvia Walker went to school at Villa Nova, and as years rolled on, on a beautiful autumn day, they with Augusta Walker, George Lemon, Ursula Walker and Lewis Walker, wended their way to the Baptist parsonage at Boston, where Elder Reddick made them one, and they have truly been real companions. They have been blessed with fine sons and daughters, seven of whom were present on their 60th anniversary: William of Chicago, of the Pullman works; Mrs. Minnie Erwin of Villa Nova; Mrs. H. Cunningham of Delhi; Mrs. Wm. Heath of Bloomsburg; Mrs. Wm. Kerr of Detroit, and Mr. Archie McLaren of London; and Gordon, at home. Three sons, Herbert, Robert and Ernest, are in Alberta. Many letters of congratulation were received from Toledo, California and Toronto. Mr. McLaren who has been an invalid for some time is well cared for by his loving faithful wife. It is a joy and a pleasure to meet and converse with this happy couple who are alive to all the interests of the present day. Mr. and Mrs. McLaren wish to thank the Women's Institute and their many friends who helped to make their sixtieth anniversary a real joy to the bride of 80 years and groom of 82 years.

MARRIAGE NOTICE: Heath - McLaren -- At Villa Nova Methodist church, on Wednesday, Sept. 22nd, 1909, by Rev. E. Sheppard, of Waterford, Miss Bertha McLaren, of Villa Nova, and Mr. Will Heath, of Bloomsburg.
WEDDING: On Wednesday of last week at twelve o'clock noon in the Methodist Church, the marriage of Miss Bertha McLaren, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. John McLaren of this place, and Mr. William Heath, of Bloomsburg, was solemnized by Rev. E. Sheppard, in the presence of a large number of guests. A most unique and beautiful bower consisting of foliage and flowers had been arranged at the church front, in which the minister waited, while the bride and groom unushered and unattended, according to the latest mode and to the strains of Lohengrin's wedding march, played by Miss Edna Gayler, marched slowly down the aisle from the entry. The ceremony was rapidly performed accordingly to the old established formula, and despite the happy augury for the future welfare of the estimable young couple, there was a tinge of regret felt by all at losing from our immediate circle such a useful and highly accomplished young lady as Miss McLaren, who was the organist for both Methodist and Baptist churches as well as the orchestra. Congratulations were extended after the guests had repaired to the bride's home, where a most sumptuous banquet was spread, and to which ample justice was done. The bride was attired in a white silk princess gown with bridal veil and orange blossoms, carrying a beautiful shower bouquet of bridal roses and maiden-hair ferns. Her going away gown was a green broadcloth traveling suit with a large green velvet hat trimmed with foliage. The presents were numerous and costly. Among those present from a distance were: Mr. and Mrs. George Heath, parents of the groom, Miss Emma Hart, of Bloomsburg; Mrs. Heath and Mr. Ed. Heath, of Waterford; Mr. and Mrs. McNally, the Misses McNally, Mr. and Mrs. Frank Shaw, Miss Ethel Shaw, Mrs. (Dr.) Stanton, of Simcoe; Mr. and Mrs. John Terry and Mrs. Defield, of Waterford; Mr. Lindsay of Waterford; Mr. and Mrs. Herb. Cunningham, Hagersville.
BIOGRAPHY: The Waterford Star, June 29 1916. -- The Man From Norfolk -- Little did Captain W. L. Heath think when he was a mere lad attending the Waterford High School, that in a few years he would lead a company of strapping fine fellows past the old school and halt at the town hall through lines of waving flags and cheering citizens, as he did yesterday. He is a spruce little officer. He has been in the military business since he was 16 years old and a Captain of the 39th since 1910, according to the lists. It was always his ambition to be a real soldier and to lead real men, and he has them. If the repeated protestations yesterday that the men were a well behaved lot, have left a suggestion at Waterford that there is something to be covered up, let such impressions be obliterated. Captain Heath has left a good fruit farm in a good township, and is leaving behind a wife and two small children, this last, doubtless his only regret, and is eager to do his part. He is proud of what Waterford has done and says of Townsend that it is just a question as to whether the land should be left untilled or kept producing--which is the greatest need, men for the ranks or for the farms which he considers are not over manned. Captain Heath has good company and "D" Company has a levelheaded efficient officer. --Simcoe Canadian. ADDENDUM: Captain Slater is captain of "D" Co. so Captain Heath moves up a notch and is now Major Heath.

OBITUARY: William Lindsay Heath, one of Simcoe's best-known citizens, died suddenly Monday night in Norfolk General Hospital at the age of 73.

He attended Waterford public and high schools and farmed in Townsend until 1944 when he moved to Simcoe. Here he was in the insurance and real estate business, in the firm of Heath and Kelsall, retiring about five years ago. Deceased had an outstanding military background, serving in the first World War with the 133rd (Norfolk's Own) Battalion as major.

HISTORICAL NOTE: "Historical Sketch of Villa Nova" Handwritten: 1954 by (author unknown) -- In the spring of 1850, or 104 years ago, the Regular Baptist Church was organized with twenty seven charter members. At the first covenant meeting thirteen days later when twenty two members were present Elder Jacob Goble was chosen as the first pastor or chairman of the newly organized church. There were several saw mills on the banks of the creek, one owned by Squire William Walker in front of Austin Smith's house. He (William Walker) lived where (Jno ?) Hockens (in 1954) lives, and was a magistrate and was the man who gave the property for the old cemetery. He (William Walker) was the first school teacher that Waterford had. The first store was owned and managed by John McLaren Sr. and stood on the corner across from the blacksmith shop which was owned and run by Mr. (Larson?). (----?) a store was built on the site where our present one stands and was owned by James Erskine. I wonder how many know that Villa Nova once had a Rifle Company (the rest unreadable). After the Finian Raid in 1866, Mr. John McLaren Sr. (the rest is unreadable).

The late Mrs. Woolley lived a very retired life, due to poor health, was the happy possessor of the true Christian spirit and was a great love of nature, and known to all by her passionate devotion to her garden. Besides her husband, she leaves to mourn her passing three sons, Lloyd, Woodhouse, Lynn, Lakeview, N.Y., and Gordon of Timmins; also two sisters, Mrs. Bert Schimmel, Detroit, and Mrs. Walter Seldon, Waterford; one brother, William Andrews, Detroit, and a step-brother, Roy Seville, Lynn Valley.

Mrs. and Mrs. Woolley spent many years at the Woolley homestead, coming to town about 13 years ago. Deceased was of a very cheerful nature; a lover of home she devoted her hours to love and care of her family and her ever-increasing circle of friends. Hers was the goodness of contagious mirth and gladness which endeared her to all who came in contact with her, and her laughter will be a recollection long cherished by her friends. A few week's prior to her death the late Mrs. Woolley was baptized at a private baptism service in St. Paul's church and only few short weeks ago she was Confirmed by the Bishop, a private service being arranged for by Rev. D. J. Cornish. She leaves to mourn her passing besides her husband, a family of three sons: Lloyd, of Woodhouse; Lynn of Lakeview, Buffalo; Gordon, of Timmins, Ontario.

The funeral of Monday afternoon was largely attended, many former neighbors and friends from Woodhouse also attending. Rev. D. J. Cornish had charge of the service at the house and in his brief address he told of the many kind acts and thoughtfulness for others that had ever been characteristic of the deceased lady.

NOTE: According to Ontario and Ionia County records, several maiden names have been attributed for Celestine (Bazor, Bazzo, Bazoe, Bechue, Bechul, Yerkes, Yerks or Wells) on various legal documents i.e. her son's Francis' and William's death certificates the last name is listed as Yerks. I have found her last name to be given as Yerks on other such documents such as 1851 Census Walsingham, Norfolk, Ontario for her sister so that is the name I will be using. Please contact me, the email is at the bottom of this page, if you have further proof for another name. Ralph and Celestine lived on Lot 15 Con 12 in Walsingham Twp., Norfolk Co., Ontario. They immigrated to the U.S. in 1865 and settled in Boston Twp., Ionia Co., about four miles southeast of Lowell, Kent Co., MI. They appear with their family on the 1870 Boston Twp., Ionia Co. Census.
FAMILY LETTERS: According to family records, provided by Audrey Dykstra and Laurice Welch, in a letter dated Jan. 31, 1976, Ralph Walker wrote, "Uncle Frank told me that his father was killed in an accident. He was with a machine where the chain broke and hit him in the stomach and caused his death. I think he said his mother had died previous or soon after. He said Uncle Ed and Will were small boys and had no where to go so he took them with him back to the lumber camp where he worked and that is where they grew up. The amazing thing is that they never formed any bad habits, did not drink, never went to jail and grew up to be first class citizens. But they both learned how to fight, for there a man had to fight for his life. They both became semi-professionals prize fighters. I may have told of Uncle Will that came to our place for a couple days. He was about twenty five. He went with my father to a neighbor's to thresh. The owner of the machine "claimed" to be a prize fighter, a giant of a man and he had begun to pick on Uncle Will. He came for Uncle Will like a mad bull, when he got near Uncle Will jumped to one side and landed a hard right to the ear, this happened about seven times, the last he couldn't get up. He said, "I don't know who you are but you are a better man then I". I met a man that worked there the summer and he said the "old bully" was a different man from then on. Uncle Will showed no signs of being angry, it was a common thing for him. I feel sure Ed and Will were the only brothers, for Uncle Frank always spoke of them as his brothers."
FAMILY LETTERS: According to family records, provided by Audrey Dykstra and Laurice Welch, in a letter dated Nov. 14, 1976, Ralph Dodds wrote, "You wondered if Grandfather (Ralph) Walker owned his farm or was he a renter? I am real sure he owned the farm although I have no real proof of this. Uncle Frank was the eldest son and after the parents died he married Rebecca King, they lived across the road and they lived there for at least fifteen years and they traded the farm for one in Odessa Twp. right near where we live. So it could not have been rented."
FAMILY LETTERS: According to family lore, provided by Audrey Dykstra and Laurice Welch, in a letter dated Apr. 13, 1977, Ralph Dodds wrote, "You thought it was strange Audrey, that one of the girls didn't take Ed and Will. My mother said that when a girl was ten or twelve they went out to work for some farmer's wife for a year or two and then they went to a hotel to work, Aunt Agnes was the youngest girl and someone took her for a year or two, The other girls were all in hotels and could not take them, the two boys, there. The lumber camps were always glad to get boys to carry water and wood, and help the cook for their board, so that seemed the only way out. I bet they were good little workers for they loved to work."
FAMILY LETTERS: According to family records, provided by Audrey Dykstra and Laurice Welch, in a letter dated Aug. 13, 1976, Ralph Dodds wrote, "My mother did not tell me much about her parents. she said her father was killed in an accident and her mother died soon after and that they were both buried in Boston Cemetery, that is west of Boston Grange Hall. When I was a boy our neighbor, John Seybold said he knew Ralph Walker. He said he lived two miles southeast of Lowell. He said he was a big strong man and well liked by everyone. He said he was known far and near as 'Uncle Rafe'."

OBITUARY: Taken from the Midland Daily News or Gladwin Co., Record: Name: George Artemus Stone, son of Robert and Sarah Stone, was born in Steuben county, New York, and departed this life in Gladwin, Mich., on Jan. 21, 1931. In early life he came with his parents to Michigan, engaging in lumbering and later took up farming as an occupation until his health failed when he moved to Gladwin, where he resided until he passed away. During his illness of four years which was very painful at times he manifested much fortitude and seemed to accept the cup of suffering in the spirit of submission. The loving, willing untiring sacrifice of his faithful wife who was constantly at his bed side, their lives being so knit together that only one taken out this life could divide asunder, characterized the atmosphere of the home. He was married to Agnes Walker in Kent county, Mich., in 1884. To this union was born one daughter, Mrs. Claude Wray, who resides in Gladwin. His wife having preceded him 14 years ago last September, he was again married to Grace Meek of Durand, Mich., April 16, 1917. They lived happily together until his death. He is survived by his loving wife, two daughters, one brother, Fred Barton of Midland, two nephews, George Barton of Durand and Charlie Stone of Gladwin, 11 grand-children, one having preceded him three months ago and a host of friends mourn his loss. Funeral services were conducted in the Methodist Episcopal church by Rev. O. A. Lint, assisted by Rev. L. M. Whitney, Jan. 24. Interment was made in Highland cemetery.

FAMILY LETTERS: According to family records, provided by Audrey Dykstra, in a letter dated December 12, 1976 from Ralph Dodds, he related the following story: "I spent some very happy times with Uncle Ed and Aunt Hattie when they lived northwest of Ionia. I went there in the fall and helped husk corn in the day and go coon hunting at night. One night the dog had a coon up a tall tree, and Uncle shot what he thought was the coon, and it was Ruby's old pet cat "Tim". Uncle Ed felt terrible about that and made me promise not to tell Ruby about it. She looked for days for her Tim cat."

NEWS ARTICLE: Broken Leg- The many friends of Mr. Robert McCool will regret to learn of the misfortune which befell him on Saturday morning last. While out in the yard on the west side of his house, he unfortunately slipped and fell, breaking his left leg between the knee and hip, and also severely bruising his hip. Robert was taken into the house by Thomas McCool and James Leach, who fortunately happened to be present at the time, and medical assistance summoned. The fracture was reduced on Sunday and the unfortunate man is as comfortable as it is possible to make him. It will no doubt be a long time before he will be able to get around again, as his age, between 75 and 80, is against him making a very speedy recovery. To make matters still worse Mr. McCool has been totally blind for several months.
NEWS ARTICLE: Medical: Mr. Robert McCool is gradually sinking, his recovery is impossible.
DEATH: Find a Grave Index: Name: Robert McCool, U.E.L. Age: 78 Birth: 13 Dec 1809 Death: 9 Mar 1888 Waterford, Townsend Twp., Norfolk Co., Ontario.
OBITUARY: Owing to the very inclement state of the weather, the funeral of the late Mr. Robert McCool on Sunday morning was not as largely attended as it would otherwise have been. Since the injury he sustained some few weeks ago, he has been gradually sinking until on Friday last he passed quietly away. A union memorial service was held in the Baptist Church in which the resident minister took part. The sermon by the Rev. Mr. Moore was a masterly to infidelity and was listened to with close attention.

Family ties and kind neighborhood friends have contributed so much to their reserved ways of country life.

Mrs. Lizzie Duck, who was 90 years old this summer, has lived in Grassie since 1912 and still likes to talk about the years gone by. She has three grandchildren and three great grandchildren. "My husband and I had a wonderful and successful farming life, considering all the problems of this way of life," she commented. "I like meeting people and I like my friends to come and see me at my home. These lifelong friends mean a lot to me. "I also like visiting. About 35 ladies from the Fulton Church brought me a birthday cake a short time ago. Now I have three cakes after this big party." A Saturday evening buffet supper was held recently at Rock Chapel Church hall in honor of the three Grassie ladies. The supper was supervised by Mesdames Frances Sherritt, Jean Black, Ethel Vickers and Edith Vickers.
SOCIAL NOTE: On Saturday evening a wiener roast was held near the home of Mr. and Mrs. Ted Duck in Honour of the occasion of three birthdays - Mr. Ted Duck, Mrs. Wesley Sherritt, and Mrs. Murray Donavan. Members of the respective families were present. (July 1959)

BIOGRAPHY: If the art of quilt making is dying in Canada, the women of Grassie can smugly boast they had no part of it. In celebrating their golden Jubilee the Grassie Ladies Aid are in the process of making their 400th quilt since they organized 50 years ago. Charter member, Mrs. Lottie Walker, recalled the events of those first meetings saying "We were just an agreeable bunch of women who didn't smoke, drink or play cards. Being young and out here on our own we would gather up whatever sewing we had make our way to a neighbour's home and talk over the latest happenings. As you can imagine, it didn't take long for nothing used to happen around here, but we enjoyed it just the same. The late Rev. Wilson of Grassie Presbyterian Church took an interest in our work and suggested that we become organized. Through him we became known as the Ladies Aid and the first actual meeting was held at the home of Mrs. Walter Hopkins on the first Wednesday in March 1914. Twelve women were present on that day and we elected the late Mrs. David Jacobs as president, and Mrs. Walter McClary, now of London Ont., as our secretary." Today the 'quilting bees' are just as active, Mrs. Walker who held office as president for ten years now works hard on the work committee. People from around Grassie know of the excellent quilts these women make and often give them work to do, but along with this they are continuously making more quilts for the Harbour Mission in Hamilton, also missions up north and for Miss Viola Walker who is on a mission in the Belgian Congo at the present time. The group is interdenominational although affiliated with the Grassie Gospel Church. A person new to Grassie will be welcomed as a neighbour by the Ladies Aid and invited to become a member, on arrival they will find that the ages of these industrious ladies range from 27 to 72, they will also see that two new Canadians are being taught the craft of quilt making. A welcome hand is extended by all members and this year's anniversary president, Mrs. William Hilberg to those who would like to join. Congratulations was said many times last Wednesday as the group celebrated the historic date of their organizing, and Mrs. Larry Duck, one of the newer members, proved to be an excellent hostess.
SOCIAL NOTE: Mrs. Lottie Walker and Miss. Audrey and Betty Lou accompanied Mr. and Mrs. Fred Duck and Larry on a trip up north where they visited friends. (August 1950)
SOCIAL NOTE: Life in the small hamlet of Grassie has been a most rewarding Adventure for Mesdames Lydia Elizabeth (Lizzie) Duck, Charlotte (Lottie) Walker and Minnie Irene Duck. A grand total of 250 years has been written in The family album of memories for these three ladies, who have lived in this small community for most of their lives. Family ties and kind neighborhood friends have contributed so much to their reserved ways of country life. Their names can be found on the same family tree, due primarily to marriages associated with their husbands. Mrs. Lizzie Duck, who was 90 years old this summer, has lived in Grassie since 1912 and still likes to talk about the years gone by. She has three grandchildren and three great grandchildren. "My husband and I had a wonderful and successful farming life, considering all the problems of this way of life," she commented. "I like meeting people and I like my friends to come and see me at my home. These lifelong friends mean a lot to me. "I also like visiting. About 35 ladies from the Fulton Church brought me a birthday cake a short time ago. Now I have three cakes after this big party." A Saturday evening buffet supper was held recently at Rock Chapel Church hall in honor of the three Grassie ladies. The supper was supervised by Mesdames Frances Sherritt, Jean Black, Ethel Vickers and Edith Vickers. "I was born in Grassie and lived there all of my life," remarked Mrs. Minnie Duck. "Life has been very good to me for these 80 years, as a mother of two girls and now a grandmother for 11 grandchildren. My grandchildren keep me feeling young again. "I was a public school teacher for 25 years, some before my marriage and the rest after my marriage. I like being part of a big family tree of relatives." The three ladies are related to one another by marriages and the details of such can be found on the Duck family tree of relations. Mrs. Lottie Walker, who has lived in Grassie since 1912 and who now is 80 years old, was born in Bracebridge. She later moved to Calgary, Alberta, then to her present home. This home is regarded as being 100 years old. "I like my grandchildren and I think I have had a very pleasant life," she commented. "I enjoy our family life and also like being a good member of the Grassie Gospel Church." "There have been many changes in things at Grassie partly due to the different people that have moved into the community. There also have been many changes in the church since I first started going to it many years ago." Mrs. Walker still likes to reminisce about the days gone by as a girl in Bracebridge. Music for this family party at Rock Chapel was contributed by Larry Duck at the piano and Stan Black and his violin. Charlotte Golwitzer, young daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Peter Golwitzer, blew out the candles on her birthday cake before The cake-cutting ceremony involving the three honoured guests. (August 1972)

CEMETERY: Tweedside Cemetery, Grassie, South Grimsby Twp., Lincoln Co., Ontario: Walker Fred 1885 - 1945, his wife Lottie Duck 1892 - 1986. [Francis Duck's Notes] The day that Mr. Frederick Walker was to be buried was one of the worst days of the winter. There had been heavy snow and strong winds with the result that many of the rural roads were closed. Mr. Walker had been resting at the Book Funeral Home in Smithville and because of the road conditions they had to have a snow plow lead the hearse to Grassie, it was the only way they could get there. My uncle, Lorenzo Lyster Duck was one of the pallbearers but because of the weather he was unable to get our car out our long lane onto #20 highway. It just happened that the big FWD snowplow came down the Grassie road at that time and he was able to catch a ride back to Grassie. After the funeral service at the home the plow which had waited at Grassie, led the way to the Tweedside Cemetery and then waited until the grave side service was over and then led everyone back to Grassie.

BIOGRAPHY: When Walker and Estella were married in 1917, they travelled west to Alberta to homestead. They stayed through the first winter and with the coming of spring decided to return to Ontario. Walker could not stand the lack of trees so came back to the home farm and purchased it from his father in 1918. Walker and Estella farmed through good and bad years continuing to plant apple trees. They had a dairy herd and shipped milk. Eggs from their laying hens were sold in Hamilton. Estella related the story of the year they did not have one apple on the farm but contended that farming was a good life. Walker named the farm Belvedere Orchards after a castle he visited in Scotland. In 1948 they built the little grey house up the road and called it Belvedere Cottage. In 1974 Walker was struck by a car while crossing the road and was hospitalized for over a year.

OBITUARY: Honored Resident Is Called To Final Rest - James D. Bennett Passes Away In His 88th Year - In the death of James D. Bennett, who passed away early on Saturday morning, Beamsville and district have lost a valuable citizen -- one who has been identified with the life of the community for many years, and whose place it will be hard to full. Though past his 87th year, Mr. Bennett was until a short time ago able to be around town and to the very last maintained his intense interest in his home town and people. During the past year he had been confined to the house at varying periods and on Thursday he was taken with his final illness, passing away to well-earned rest early on Saturday morning, Jan. 2nd. Mr. Bennett had done much for the community, and only a short time before his decease he had still shown his interest by freely deeding to the village a valuable lot on Mountain street, to be used for the erection of municipal buildings. The funeral took place from the family residence on Monday afternoon, being attended by an extremely large concourse of friends. Services were conducted by Rev. Wm. Arthurs, of the Baptist church, the pallbearers being L. B. Tufford, M. L. Tufford, L. Collard, W. T. Zimmerman, W. J. Reid and W. E. Boughner. The floral tributes were most beautiful and numerous, coming from friends all over the country. They include choice wreaths from the I. O. D. E. the local Masonic lodge, The Baptist church, Baptist Ladies Aid and the Village Council. The Express is indebted to the Spectator for the following brief notes on Mr. Bennett's life. Born in the township of North Grimsby in the year 1838, his parents were natives of Belfast, Ireland, and were prominent among the earl settlers in the Grimsby district. In 1854, when still a lad, he came to Beamsville as an apprentice in William Kew's carriage manufacturing plant, remaining here for some sixteen years. In 1870 he established a carriage and wagon plant of his own and made a big success of the business for many years, retiring in 1897 from any further active participation in the business. The carriages of Bennett manufacture were known far and wide throughout the Niagara district for their excellent workmanship. In the year 1881 deceased was appointed postmaster, retaining the position until 1895. He was elected a school trustee in 1897, and continued to sit on the board of education for varying periods during his life time. From 1880, for eleven successive years, he sat at the council board and was elected to the reeve-ship in 1891. Mr. Bennett had been a member of the Masonic order since 1866 and was the oldest member at the time of his death of Ivy Lodge, A.F. & A. M. He was the firs noble grand of Freestone lodge, I. O. O. F., and took an active interest also in Orange lodge affairs. Always a strong Baptist in religion, the activities of this denomination were very dear to him. He liked to have old friends near him and delighted to entertain them with anecdotes of other years, of people and places. His collection of manuscripts, books, photographs and statistics, relating to the earliest days of the district are unique, and he was constantly adding to its value. He leaves to mourn a long and honorable career, and a life well lived, a widow, one son, James of Hartford, Conn., two daughters, Mrs. W. D. Fairbrother, of Beamsville, and Mrs. Fred Smith, of Springfield, Mass.

OBITUARY: Respected by many, Don Awde dies -- Don Aude's commitment to the Town of Grimsby and its people remained firm for most of the century. Through his teaching career at Grimsby Secondary, and his long standing membership in the Lions Club, Mr. Awde worked hard encouraging those around him to better themselves. Mr. Awde, 84, died Saturday, Dec. 31 at West Lincoln Memorial Hospital after a long respiratory illness. A funeral service was held Jan. 4 at St. Andrew's Anglican Church. Many people knew Mr. Awde best as the principal of Grimsby Secondary School. He started his teaching career there in 1936, later becoming a 25-year principal of the school, before retiring in 1973. As both teacher and principal, Mr. Awde was active in all aspects of the school, including sports and social events. Mr. Awde's retirement in the spring of 1973 was so significant in Grimsby that his last day of work was designated Don Awde Day. Over 700 colleagues, friends, and former students, some from as far away as California and Vancouver, descended on Grimsby to recognize his impact on the community. Mr. Awde also farmed some 30 acres of cherries and peaches on a strip of land near Kerman Avenue and Livingston. In his early days as principal, it was not uncommon for him to interview prospective teachers in the orchards as he tended to the trees. Mr. Awde was actively involved in the community, serving 48 years with the Lions Club. His flare for music enlightened many in the Lions Club and the Grimsby Barbershoppers. Born in Rainy River, in North Western Ontario, Mr. Awde attended the University of Guelph where he obtained a Bachelor of Science degree. He followed that with studies at the Ontario College of Education. Mr. Awde met his wife Lila, in the early part of his teaching career at GSS. They were married in 1940 at St. Andrew's Church. Shortly after marrying, Mr. Awde joined the war effort teaching air navigation to budding pilots in Aylmer, Ont., and later in St. John, Nova Scotia. "He was a man of integrity," says Larry Rendall, a former GSS teacher whom Mr. Awde "hired with a handshake" in 1968. "He was always urging teachers and students to better themselves. "He had no air of superiority and his leadership came from his confidence" and the ability to stir confidence in others", said Mr. Rendall, who gave the eulogy at Mr. Awde's funeral. Mr. Awde leaves wife, Lila, sons Brian and John, daughters Wendy and Debbie, and three grandchildren. The Awde family has established the Don Awde Scholarship Fund to recognize GSS students who excel in athletics, music, and academics. Friends may send remembrances to The Fund, c/o Grimsby Secondary School.

OBITUARY: Ingersoll Chronicle, Thursday, July 27, 1916 -- Death Calls Dr. I.R. Walker -- Dr. I.R. Walker died Tuesday afternoon at London where he had been living for over a year. Although not unexpected, owing to an extended illness, the announcement of his death was received with profound regret by scores of friends in Ingersoll and vicinity. The late Dr. Walker was widely known as a medical practitioner here for nearly fifty years. During this long period he had resided continuously in Ingersoll and in the discharge of his professional duties established a wide acquaintanceship in all parts of the County. He possessed a genial personality, mingled freely with his friends and always asserted a public spirit. On al matters of public interest he never hesitated to give expression to his views. He was deeply interested in the development of the town and when conditions warranted he gave hearty support to all measures intended to advance the interest of the whole community. He was thorough and methodical in all his work, even in the slightest detail. In numerous homes in the town and throughout surrounding districts he was held in the highest esteem. The friendship of years had ripened into affection, suggesting the strongest attachment for the family physician , whose presence and words always inspired confidence. The late Dr. Walker in the days was a member of the Mechanics Institute and was instrumental in creating a more lively interest in literary work in the town. He also was an enthusiastic curler. For many years he was actively connected with Ingersoll Curling club and at the time of his death was an honorary member. For many years he was deeply interested in the educational affairs of the town and very acceptably served as a member of the Board of Education. He was strong in his advocacy of thoroughness in the teaching system, and vigorously championed projects calculated to increase the efficiency of the schools and to make the environment more congenial to the students. There are many citizens who will recall with interest debates which featured the sessions of the Board of Education upwards of fifteen years ago. Dr. Walker, as was well known, made a study of school law , and he was always fortified in this respect when engaging in a spirited debate. The late Dr. Walker was also an ardent devotee of the gun and rod and the early days derived keen pleasure from his hunting and fishing expeditions in neighbouring districts. He possessed a kindly disposition and merited the esteem of all with whom he associated. He is survived by his wife and one son, Dr. Harry Walker, of Wetaskiwin, Alberta.
OBITUARY: Oxford Tribune, Thursday, July 27, 1916 -- Dr. I.R. Walker -- The announcement of the death of Dr. I. R. Walker in London, on Tuesday afternoon, was not unexpected as he had been ill for almost a year, confined to a hospital in London and his recovery was doubtful. Dr. Walker practiced medicine here for half a century and was widely known and highly esteemed by all who knew him. The medical fraternity particularly benefited by his knowledge to the profession and many timely advises were given them by late physician. He was very successful in his large practice and to the older friends his passing will be regretted keenly. Dr. Walker was a lover of sports and took an active interest in them in former years. The Curling Club elected him an honorary member. The town s welfare was of great to him and whenever possible, Dr. Walker was doing all he could do aid its cause. He also served on the School Board for sometime. He is survived by Mrs. Walker and her sons, Dr. Harry Walker of Wetaskawin, Sask., survives him.

LAND HISTORY: On April 21, 1827 Philip bought 200 acres of land in Nelson Township from Edward Pilkington, Lot 13, Concession 2. The Tremaine Map, 1858, shows the land divided in two from east to west. In 1854, Philip granted the south string hundred acres to his eldest son Hiram and 1860 granted the north half to his son William Henry, with whom he lived. November 15, 1883, under the power of a mortgage, Duncan McGibbon, a lawyer, became the owner of the north 100 acres. Several others were owners in an interim period but in 1891 Walter Reid Walker, assisted by his brother William David Walker, purchased the north part and returned the Walker homestead to the Walker family. July 27, 1921, Walter R. Walker sold the farm to Thomas J. Reid. Mr. Reid, a first World War pensioner, operated the farm, growing apples and raspberries. To further supplement his income he drove the mail route out of the Milton post office. In the 1930's Mr. Reid contracted with Mr. Fred Babcock to remodel the stone house. Fred Babcock was one of those excellent craftsmen of the era. He redesigned and remodeled the stone house including the addition to the second storey that is so outstanding today. James and Audrea Costigan obtained this property in 1958. The work of remodeling and restoring the beauty of this historic structure has been continued by Audrea Lear-Costigan to the present.

ITEM: In the Ontario Directory, Josiah Corlis is listed as a physician in St. Thomas, years 1882, 1884 and 1886 - 1887.
BIOGRAPHY: Josiah Corlis began his distinguished career first as an ordained Baptist minister, which he practiced until after his marriage to Margaret Walker in 1862. In 1866 he decided to become a doctor and entered McGill University, Montreal, from which he graduated in 1869 as a doctor of Medicine and Master of Surgery (M.D., C.M.). He first started practice in North Cayuga township, Haldimand county, and moved to Simcoe in 1871. In 1873 he moved to St. Thomas where he opened an office opposite the C.S.R. station. Dr. Corlis was a public spirited man and served on the school board from 1874-76 and the town council from 1876-78, and again in 1884. He was also active in the Masonic Lodge, and became the first Worshipful Master of St. David's Lodge No. 302 in St. Thomas, in 1873. In 1881, his wife Margaret Walker Corlis enrolled at the Royal College of Physicians and Surgeons at Kingston from which she received her M.D., C.M. in 1885. She joined her husband in practice at a new office he built in 1885 at 2 Horton St. In 1891 the Corlis family decided to immigrate to Australia, settling in New South Wales. In Australia, Dr. Margaret Corlis became the first woman to be registered as a medical practitioner. In 1894, the two doctors went to the western Australian gold fields and served in Kalgoorlie and Menzies, where Dr. Corlis became the first Mayor. During a typhoid epidemic in 1897, he looked after patients over a 150 mile area. They returned to New South Wales in the early 1890's and in 1905 took a trip back to St. Thomas. Dr. Josiah Corlis died in 1922 in Gamba, New South Wales, and his wife, who was blind for the last few years of her life, died in 1925. All three of their sons became doctors.
NEWS ITEM: The Mensies Miner, pioneer newspaper of the North Coolgardie Goldfields, Menzies, Western Australia, Saturday, Dec. 14th: A Norfolk Man To The Front in Australia -- Dr. Josiah Corlis, formerly of Simcoe, who some years ago moved to Australia, is making his mark in that distant land. There are few medical men are better known on the gold fields than Dr. Josiah Corlis, for he has been settled on the fields since 1893, and received his goldfields baptism at Southern Cross. Dr. Corlis was born near Simcoe, Ontario in Canada, and graduated at McGill College, in Montreal, in 1869, taking the degree of Doctor of Medicine, as well as that of Master of Surgery, the highest attainments which the medical schools in Canada afford. Subsequently he settled at St. Thomas, Ontario, and practiced there for 20 years. Vivid pictures of the riches of Australia, and the ease with which fortunes were built up, lured the doctor from St. Thomas, and in 1890 he arrived in Sydney, when he received the appointment of Government medical officer for the Bellinger and Nambecca districts, and he practiced in Ferramont. After three years of life in New South Wales, he was drawn to the Golden West, and after 18 months in Southern Cross, he was induced to start practice in Menzies, where he remained ever since. Immediately upon arrival here, he was appointed medical officer to the hospital. It required a man with a big heart to undertake such an appointment, because there were so many, and such great difficulties to be overcome. His success in surmounting them is written on the records of the hospital, which shows the lowest death rate of any hospital in the colony. Mining is a hobby of the doctor's and some day he hopes to make a "good punch." In August last he was created a Justice of the Peace for the North Coolgardis District, and is now mayor of Mensies.

NEWS ARTICLE: SAD DROWNING ACCIDENT AT PT. DOVER -- Body of Covel Rankin Found Lashed to Boat --- Still Searching for Body of Archie Edmondson -- This community stood appalled on Thursday forenoon when the news was given out that Covel ("Gint") Rankin and Archie Edmondson were missing and that it was feared some calamity had befallen them on the treacherous waters of Lake Erie. The two young men left here Wednesday forenoon in a staunch sailboat in order to set a small gang of nets in the vicinity of Woolley's Point, which is in plain sight of this village. They took no lunch with them and should have been home again in the early afternoon or before nightfall at the latest. The day was an ideal one till about four o'clock when a strong gale from the eastward sprang up which would necessitate a "beat" home by the tedious process of tacking. Some uneasiness was felt when they did not return by tea time, but it was supposed that they had found it useless to keep on beating for their home port and had run before the wind with the object of beaching the boat or seeking one of the few -- too few -- places of safety along this portion of the north shore of Lake Erie. When Thursday morning came after a night of howling wind with its bitter ice storm, and no tidings of the missing ones had been received, it was feared that the worst had happened. The fleet of fishing tugs had gone out to the grounds to lift their nets, but having found the operation to be detrimental to the fishing gear, were returning to their home port. Captain Duncan MacDonald set out with the Jean F. and patrolled the bay to Turkey Point, and thence across to Ryerson's Island, without finding any trace of the imasing [missing] boat or its occupants, and returned home in the face of a heavy sea. The telephone system even then was beginning to give way, owing to the ice storm, but wherever possible parties residing near the shore were asked to start a patrol of the shore. A patrol was on the point of setting out from this place when a telephone message was received that a searcher east of Fisher's Glen had found a boat, the sail and a body, which was thought from the hurried description to be that of Rankin, and the conjecture was verified by subsequent happenings. Shortly after the telephone message came through the lines connecting the Port with the outside world became inoperative, to be followed a few minutes later by the telegraph lines. Later in the evening a wagon arrived bearing the body of Rankin, and it is the opinion of those competent to judge that he was not drowned, but had met his death from exposure. From conversation with the members of three different patrol parties which had been out on successive days, the following facts have been gleamed: Two net boxes and an oar have been found just above Woolley's Point, showing pretty conclusively that some mishap had occurred below -- or on this side of -- the point. Edmondson's suit coat was found just above Port Ryerse. Rankin's oilskin pants were found near the boat, and he apparently cut them with a knife. He had removed his Long rubber boots and had lashed himself to the boat, followed the example of his great-grandfather, who was three times shipwrecked on Lake Erie. His body, however, was lying together with the mast and sail, a few feet from the boat when found. Edmondson's body has not been found at the date of writing, but the beach is being patrolled every day, and the patrol will be kept up for a considerable time if necessary. This young man was a quiet lad, unmarried, who was well liked and had many friends in the village. He lived with his mother and sisters on Brant Hill. Rankin was a great lover of athletic sports and was a member of the local baseball and hockey teams for several years. He leaves a wife and three small children. He was a square, game sportsman.
NEWS ARTICLE: No Trace Of Edmonson As Yet -- Although the beach is patrolled daily by a number of citizens in an effort to locate the body of Archie Edmonson, who lost his life at the same time as Covel Rankin, no trace has yet been found. The search will be kept up indefinitely, and a vigilant watch will be kept up. [The body of Archie Edmondson was never found].
MEMORIAL MARKER: Found on the "Fishermans Memorial" located on the west pier in Port Dover: Archie Edmonson / 1885 - MAR 29 1922.

GOLDEN WEDDING ANNIVERSARY: 1921 - A most enjoyable afternoon was spent at the residence of Mr. and Mrs. Absalam Hoover, Rainham Township, near Hoover's Point on the shores of Lake Erie, it being the celebration of their 50th wedding day. The afternoon was ideal, the greetings and good cheer to the host and hostess were many. At 1 p.m. the guests to the number of about seventy were invited to a sumptuous dinner spread on the spacious lawns in front of the old homestead. Dr. Walker, of Dunnville a nephew of Mr. and Mrs. Hoover was chairman of the occasion and a number of very appropriate addresses were tendered the host and hostess, being spared to celebrate the half century mark of wedded life. The guests were from Parry Sound, Owen Sound, Toronto, Hamilton, Hagersville, Port Dover, Simcoe, Dutton, Bloomsburg, Waterford and Villa Nova. The very interesting part of the afternoon was the following. On request of the guests, Dr. R. Trotter, of Waterford read an address and presented the host and hostess with a Diamond Disc Edison Phonograph, the centre of which was embossed with gold, emblematic of the occasion. The happy occasion was brought to a close late in the afternoon and the guests congratulating each other on such a pleasant time and then dispersed to their various homes after singing " God Save The King."
DIAMOND WEDDING ANNIVERSARY: 1931 - Away back in the year 1848, down in the township of Rainham, there was born to Mr. and Mrs. Abram Hoover, a son, called Absalom, and this son was reared and continued to live on the same farm which is situated on the lake front about 3 miles east of the village of Selkirk. On the 27th of September, of the year 1871 Absalom journeyed into the Township of Townsend and captured a charming young maiden by the name of Cecelia Walker, a daughter of Adam Walker and Hannah Trotter, who were pioneer residents of that wealthy part of Townsend area the then thriving village of Villa Nova. After this marriage was consummated by elder Jacob VanLoon, of the City of Brantford, they returned to the old homestead in Rainham, where through sunshine and storm they have continued to reside, and the beautiful farm stead which stands today as a monument to their thrift and frugality, is one well worthy of emulation. On Saturday, Sept. 26th, over one hundred friends and relatives gathered at the old farm home on the occasion of the 60th anniversary of their marriage to dine and grasp the hands of these sturdy pioneers, and thought of how they were beloved in the community in which their entire life had been spent. After the dinner hour, Dr. Herbert Walker, who acted as toastmaster presented a very elaborate program of speech and story. Among those who spoke were: -- Mr. Chas. Walker of Hagersville; Mr. W. H. Cherry of Hagersville; Mr. Jos. Back of Villa Nova; Mr. W. H. Wheeler and Mr. Walker Hoover of Selkirk. Mr. Alton Hoover of Grimsby and grandson, Master Douglas Crosbie of Simcoe, Mrs. Clayton Culver of Tyrell presented Mrs. Hoover with a lovely bouquet at the conclusion of Mr. Hoover's address. They all expect to return for a similar celebration ten years hence.

DEATH: The cause of his death was drowning in Sandusk creek.
OBITUARY: Selkirk, May 31 -- Dr. Jonas Hoover, a prominent Selkirk man, was drowned early Tuesday morning in Sandusk creek, three miles from his home. Along with Eli Murphy, also of Selkirk, he set out late Monday night for the creek on a carp-spearing expedition. After midnight through some merriment of one of the occupants, their boat capsized in the middle of the creek. Hoover and Murphy, both good swimmers struck out for shore, which they reached safely. Hoover, in spite of the drenching, was loth to give up his fishing, and he proposed to swim across the creek to get another boat to replace the one they had lost. That was the last Murphy saw of him. He strongly advised the doctor not to attempt to cross the water, but Hoover, a strong swimmer laughed at his companion's fears and said he was determined to fetch another boat. This was about 1 o'clock, and though Murphy waited over an hour and repeatedly called out, no answer came from the swimmer. He then went to the nearest houses and aroused the occupants. Several men turned out and took part in searching for the body of the missing man. It was found four hours later. The coroner decided not to hold an inquest. Dr. Hoover was a graduate of the Detroit School of Medicine, and practiced for a number of years in the state of Michigan. Coming to Selkirk four of five years ago he found he was not allowed to practice in Canada so he took up fishing. His father lives in Selkirk and is well known as a farmer and a fisherman. Mr. Hoover's wife and three children are living at Rodney. His only brother, Abram, lives at Nanticoke. The funeral was held at Waterford this afternoon.

E. Walker, 38, of Simcoe was instantly killed on No. 6 Highway at the outskirts of town. Driving north on the highway shortly before nine o'clock, Dr. Walker struck the first of nine hopper cars of a local freight being shunted into the stone quarries of the Haldimand Quarries and Construction Limited. The cars, which were on a C.N.R. spur line leading into the quarries, were being pushed by a freight engine. The front of the train was about two-thirds across the highway at the time. A flagman, Stewart Reynolds, 81 Merrick Avenue, Hamilton, who was standing on the crossing waving a lantern, narrowly escaped death at the same time. Reynolds remained on the crossing until the victim's car was only 20 feet away. At the last moment he jumped clear and in doing so was struck by the hopper car and hurled into the east ditch on the north side of the right-of-way. The train, which was travelling slowly, stopped within 20 feet. Reynolds said that Walker's car was "travelling at a terrific rate of speed." Dr. Walker died instantly from a fractured skull and internal injuries. The body was removed to Hamilton General Hospital where an autopsy was performed Wednesday morning by Dr. W. J. Deadman, provincial pathologist. In the crash, the car was wrecked beyond repair. The steering wheel buckled up through the windshield, the motor coming up through the floorboard almost to the front seat.

NEWSPAPER BIOGRAPHY: Elmer Clare Husband -- Received his elementary education in Oakville. A man of few words and did not volunteer any information about his early life. His sisters remembered him as a shy, solemn child, quite spoiled, especially after his younger sister died. After the family moved to Kenora, I believe he worked for a time for his uncle Robert who was a painter and paperhanger. Then he went to work on the railroad and was for a time the sole support of his mother. In Feb. 1917 he joined the army, the 58th Battalion Broad Gauge Railroad Troops and served in France, running supplies to the front lines. While he was on leave in London in 1918 he met Irene Bristow. He always declared that he had taken England's most valuable treasure when he married his little English sparrow and brought her to Canada. When London born Irene stepped off the train in Kenora - a town barely 25 years old, with wooden sidewalks and muddy roads - she said to herself, "I won't be here long: But she lived there for 71 years until she died in 1991 and 56 of those years she was married to Clare. Clare and Irene had 6 children, 4 girls and 2 boys. Clare worked for the CPR for over 40 years, first as a brakeman and later as a conductor. During the depression he worked building the Trans-Canada Highway and also did painting and paperhanging. During that time, Irene sewed for others (she had apprenticed at Revlon and Rossiter in London), baked bread for the neighborhood and took in roomers and boarders. They both fostered an attitude of honesty, hard work and independence in all of their children. In 1958, the year after he retired, he got cancer but "tough old bird" that he was, he travelled up to Winnipeg on the early morning train and back on the late night train for 28 radiation treatments and beat it...for 18 years. It came back in late 1975 and he died in his 83rd year on New Year's Day...his mother's birthday...of 1976. Irene lived another 16 years, independently for 15 of them. She died in 1992 in her 96th year.

NEWS ARTICLE: Home of George and Caroline Brown, 24 and 26 James St. 1842. -- This was originally the home of George Brown, he was the Town of Milton's first Mayor. He died in 1860; about ten years later the home was moved from the present site of Knox Presbyterian Church on Main St. to James Street by James A. Waldie, blacksmith. A few years later it was divided into two units to accommodate the Waldie families who have lived here for four generations. George Brown had built a store and dwelling on the Main St. property, one of several lots he purchased in 1842 from Milton's first developer Henry Huffman. Mr. Brown was the first merchant in the area and in 1853, when Halton was separated from Wentworth, he became the first County Treasurer. He was a very industrious man; besides acting as the County Treasurer and merchant, he was involved in the buying and selling of lots in the new town. When Hugh Foster registered his plan of subdivision, Brown St. was named in his honour. He held the land on the east side in the block between Main St. and the site of the County Buildings. George Brown was elected to council when the Town of Milton was incorporated July 1, 1857 and at the first meeting of that council he was chosen Mayor by his fellow councillors. For hundreds of years three generations of the Waldie family operated a blacksmith shop on the adjoining lot. Today Marsha Waldie occupies one part of the duplex and her mother, Edna, the other.

NEWSPAPER ITEM: Helped Build The C.P.R. In West, Had 91st Birthday -- Mr. Peter M. Walker celebrated his 91st birthday last Monday, May 1st, at his home, Nelson Township. Mr. Walker spent a number of years in the west mining and while there helped in building the Canadian Pacific Railway in British Columbia, returning here to take up poultry farming. He is at present enjoying the best of health and is still active around the farm. His daughter, Miss Edna Walker of Washington, D.C. was present on this occasion. The Champion joins with other friends in extending congratulations to this nonogenterian.
NEWSPAPER ITEM: Peter Walker at 92, Recalls Incidents of The Early Days -- On May 1st, Peter Walker, Milton, celebrated his ninety-second birthday. We have noted from year to year the wonderful vitality and ability of this man in our midst. This year the neighbors decided this occasion should not pass without some arrangement to honor Mr. Walker and commemorate the event so they gathered at his home on May 1st. Interviewing Mr. Walker regarding his life history we learn that he was born on the Walter Walker farm later owned by Mr. T. Reid--one of a family of seven. Mr. Walker attended Public School which at that time was located on the farm now owned by David Hartley. Mr. David Henderson was his first teacher. He lived at home on the mountain, the farm we know as "The Geo. Agnew farm." His salary was three hundred dollars a year. He was a good teacher and 'awful good with the tawse.' There were as many as sixty children attending school. The little folks sat on benches around the outside of the room. Mr. Walker readily recalled the names of the families attending school at that time: David Shuert, Jas. McMaster, Menry McMaster, Wm. Cartwright, James Coats, Geo. Brownridge, Richard Harrison, Wm. Shields, Chas. McDowall, Judge Davis, Joe Dice, Wm. Newell, Richard Corrigan. Among many incidents related was the tragedy of the death of two men in the neighborhood, Mr. Wm. Shields and Mr. Chas. McDowell. They had driven to Hamilton with teams to sleighs and were returning with two loads of land plaster--driving across the Hamilton bay, the ice gave way and all were lost. After working on his father's farm till he was 20 years of age, Mr. Walker went west. From 1882-85 he worked at construction work with the C.P.R. along the Columbia River. Incidentally the construction gangs were Anglo-Saxon and the section gangs Polish and Chinese. On November 3, 1885 Mr. Walker saw the railroad put together at Craigalaichee (Gaelic) 67 miles west of Revelstoke. This was the final link up of the Canadian Pacific Trans Canada railroad. Mr. Walker engaged in various activities--kept store for some time, but seems to have been most interested in prospecting, and even now thrills at the memory of those exciting days. He named five mines in which he was interested, the main one "The Silver Cup" which is still in operation. Mr. Walker took up 160 acres of land, part of which became the town site of "Ferguson." The mountains attracted the men in summer with every day exciting in their search for silver and gold. They would take food and supplies for the season into the hills. Their cache, 150 lbs., mainly flour, pork and beans, would be placed up in the trees about fifteen feet above ground. The prospectors would share this food and passersby would help themselves to what they needed--leave a note saying who had been there and what they had taken from the cache. Among the foods prepared was what was called "bannock," a sort of pancake, made of flour, water, baking powder and fat from the pork. This was made into dough, placed in a frying pan and held to the fire to bake. There was very little land cleared. The Chinese had some small plots and grew vegetables. The settlers lived in towns along the railroad; had their municipal government, schools and churches, etc. Mr. Walker then as now, was interested in state affairs and was offered the Conservative nomination for the federal election, but declined. In 1897 Mr. Walker came back to Ontario, married and settled on the farm now owned by Wm. Bousefield, later he bought this farm where he now resides. In 1901 he built a fine brick house. Mr. John Maxted of Milton laid the brick. In 1903 he built the barn, the framing being done by Hagarty and Peacock. While this was being built Mrs. Walker boarded seven men, which along with the family and other help meant a great deal of work. Mr. Walker has engaged in general farming and always took an interest in township, county and large state affairs. He has a great wealth of experience in the light of which he interprets the present and his opinion is always valued and respected. Mrs. Walker died in 1928, but is ever remembered by her kindly disposition. The younger daughter Edna resides in New York. Bertha has managed the home in a most capable manner for her father, Fred and Lorne. At the birthday celebration gathering Mr. J. A. Dixon read the presentation address and Mr. D. Hartley on behalf of the neighbors and friends presented Mr. Walker with a cane. Mr. Walker received numerous other gifts. He was too overcome to reply in his usual ready style, but his smiling countenance showed his great pleasure. As he bid all the gathering good-bye they were assured it truly was most appreciated and will remain a very pleasant memory.

BIOGRAPHY: 99 Mary St., Trafalgar, Halton, Ontario -- Lot 1, Block 7 -- Foster Survey, Built in 1887. Builder Charles Harrison was born in Yorkshire England in 1818 and emigrated to Canada with his parents about 1820 settling on lot 12, concession 1 of Trafalgar township. The Harrison family had an impact on the community for many years. Their family monument is located in the Pioneer Cemetery on Bronte St. Charles attended the first Milton School, in a log building near the Pioneer Cemetery where the only teacher was his mother Elizabeth Harrison. He married Hannah M. Walker who was raised on a adjoining farm. Together they farmed in Nelson township on Lot 4, concession 1 South of Dundas Street, returning on retirement to build this home at 99 Mary St. very close to the area in which they had been raised. Thomas Harrison, Charles' father, had died in 1824, shortly after settling in the Milton area. His wife, Elizabeth, and the sons including Charles, were left to clear and develop the farm. Elizabeth not only taught the only school for miles around but also organized the first Sabbath School which drew young people from the area.

Robert 1st m., Catherine Hamilton b. d. 18 Mar 1841.
Parents are: Joel Smith and Margaret Campbell.
FAMILY NOTE: According to family lore, Mary Ann Henry was only nine years old when her mother died and eleven when her father remarried. This family tragedy probably had a major impact on her development. She was Anglican and after her marriage attended St. Jude's Anglican church in Oakville. An interesting information conflict was discovered during the research on Mary Ann. Although Mary Ann's son Walker is recorded as being born in 1844 by later family, the St. Jude's Cemetery monument records his birth as 1841. This corresponds both with his age on Census records and on death notices and with St. Jude's Church records. There was probably some distress over Mary Ann being pregnant and not married. Robert Smith's first wife did not die until 18 Mar 1841, four days after Walker's birth. Mary Ann did not get married until after her sister Margaret had left for Chicago in May of 1842. This certainly explains the comment "married at last" made by her sister in a letter of 1843. It is unusual that John Henry's family, with its emphasis on proper marriage, would see a daughter get pregnant and give birth prior to the wedding. The most likely explanation is that Catherine, the first wife, was ill for some time prior to her death. Also, this pregnancy occurred shortly after the death of Mary's father. There may have been some problem between Mary and her stepmother that increased the likelihood of what was then seen as a "faux pas".

MARRIAGE: St. Jude Anglican Church, Oakville, Trafalgar Twp., Halton Co., Ontario. Officiated by Rev. T. G. Wallace and witnessed by Elizabeth Morgan and Robert Segsmith.
NOTE: Family tradition states that Margaret and Arthur were strongly prevailed upon to be married. However, shortly after the birth of their daughter, Margaret felt that her husband's infidelity was not tolerable. Because of their adherence to the Anglican Church and their social standing in the community, divorce was not an available option. It was therefore determined that Emma Chisholm Smith Henry, her daughter Margaret Smith Forster, and her granddaughter Audrey Forster would go to England on the pretext of visiting Emma Smith Watson. Emma Chisholm Smith Henry would then become too ill to make the return journey and the family would be forced to stay in England.
