Notes |
- [bostock.net]
He was given the name "Kanankauahs" by Indians in Canada which means "Little fish trying to swim upstream"
He petitioned for 200 acres of land in Westminster, Ontario in 1812 and was granted it.
In 1814 he was appointed as Assessor for Delaware, Ontario.
In 1851, the year of his death, some of his acreage in Westminster was officially separated to make a cemetery, known as the Bostwick Cemetery (also Westminster East Cemetery). Many of his family are buried in this attractive, tree-shaded, pioneer cemetery.
