There are four separate notes. The first states: "Bull says from the Constitution of Nov. 29, 1838, 'Mackenzie announced that Proudfoot of the Credit had established an oatmeal mill". The second is about Lt. Thos. Racey, 5th Regt. Lincoln Militia and says he was "present at Beaver Dam., Chippawa & Lundy's Lane (War of 1812)". The third note says that Col. Thompson's residence was called "Harwood". The fourth note is about Commander John Skynner, R.N. and states that he "came to Peel about 1842. His family intermarried with Jarvises & Adamsons. His home named 'The Anchorage' ". |
| Fonctions : | This item is part of a box of original papers, transcripts, research notes, and newspaper clippings compiled and transcribed by Geoffrey and Kathleen Sayers. Kathleen's love of history led her to do intensive research into Geoffrey's family history. Geoffrey's paternal and maternal ancestors were some of the first settlers in Toronto Township and were notable members of the community. The notes and transcripts were written on the backs of papers related to Geoffrey's job in Insurance. |
