| 10671 | Burtch got into a squabble with Samuel Hungerford regarding ownership of Lot 34 in the Broken Front. The property was given to his wife as a Loyalist land grant, but Hungerford was already there. Eventually neither had it since they both moved, Burtches to Woodstock, Hungerford to Lot 50, formerly his father-in-law's property. [Guy St-Denis - Byron: Pioneer Days in Westminster Township, p97] [Archibald] Burtch, who was thus the fourth individual involved with the lot [34, northern part, south of Commissioners' Road], was another American. He had married Susannah, daughter of Peter Teeple, a United Empire Loyalist, of Oxford Township. As a daughter of a Loyalist she was entitled to 200 acres. Soon after, Burtch and his brother-in-law, Edward Teeple, who was located on lot 33, went to Westminster to begin their settlement duties. Unfortunately, they were unable to find their respective lots and so returned home. On February 6, 1816 Burtch penned a letter to Surveyor General Ridout regarding the location of his lot and at the same time alluded to the claims of others to what he understood was his and Teeple's land. [p98] Edward Teeple helped Burthch to clear it and erect a house for which services he was paid $103. | BURTCH, Archibald (I1690)
