Notes:

Abraham Carroll, from Oxford County, put up a respectable hostelry, the Mansion House, on the north side of Dundas, east of" Ridout, in 1828. A year or two later, however, he disposed of it; and it passed into the hands, first, of R. Traverse; then J. O'Dell, and finally John O'Neil, under whose management it was for a long time the principal tavern in London. [from "Transactions of the London and Middlesex Historical Society"]

[HCM p388]: Abram Carroll,...built the first large log-house at London, on Dundas; kept an hotel in that building in 1827-28...Although [Peter McGregor's] was the first inn, Carroll's was the first house of entertainment deserving the name.
