[HCM p574]: John Bogue, a settler of 1837, resides on Lot 33, Concession 1, where George J. Goodhue's store and distillery stood up to 1829.
[HCM p737]: John Bogue, one of the old and much esteemed citizens of the county, and a prominent farmer of Westminster Township, was born in Scotland, November 27, 1800, and is a descendant of one of the old and sterling Scotch families who have done so much to clear up the country and make presentable the pleasant homes of to-day. He was a gardener by trade, and in 1820 went to England, where six years later he was united in marriage to Miss Elizabeth Parrot. This union resulted in the birth of eight children, who grew to maturity: - John, Allen, James, Thomas, David, Richard, Ann, and Emma. In 1837, Mr. Bogue immigrated to Canada and settled on a farm of 120 acres on the 1st Concession, Lot --. Mr. Bogue cleared his farm with his own hands, and was a hard-working man. He is held in high esteem by all who know him; is in very comfortable circumstances, and is now enjoying the fruits of his labor. He is a member of the Baptist Church, of which his wife, who died in 1886, was also a member. Mr. Bogue is now in his 89th year, and his memory is still good. His son, Allen Bogue, was born in England in 1832, and wasw about five years of age when he was brought to this country by his parents. He received a good practical education in the common schools, and in early life learned the occupation of farming. He is well respected by the people of the township, and has been in the Township Council. He is president of the poultry Association, and a member of the Western Fair Board. He has always taken an active interest in school and educational affairs and holds the office of trustee.

WOODSTOCK SENTINEL REVIEW, JAN. 4, 1929:
Thamesford, Jan. 3rd - James Towle, on of the most highly respected men of the community, passed away at an early hour Thursday morning. He had been in failing health for some time. Mr. Towle was on of the survivors of the Towle family of Lakeside who settled in that district in the early days. Until he retired from active life, Mr. and Mrs. Towle lived on the 11th Concession, East Nissouri. Then he moved to this village. A well read man and a man of keen intellect and sound judgment, his opinions were always respected. He was a Conservative and a member of St. John's Anglican Church. His widow and a son, George Towle on the homestead, survive. Miss Lucie Towle, a daughter, passed away just one year ago. The interment will be made in St. John's cemetery.

Caldwell 1
[HMC p754]: Matthew Caldwell is of Scotch-English descent, and a son of John Caldwell, who was born in Nova Scotia and came to Ontario, settling on the Second Concession, in Middlesex County, in March, 1818, bringing his family, which consisted of a wife and seven children, with him. The names of the latter are as follows: -John, Meron, Elizabeth, Ezekiel Robert, Hannah, Sarah A., and last was born Matthew.The country was in a very wild state at the time of their settlement, not a tree having been cut where the vcity of London now stands. Mr. Caldwell entered 200 acres of land, which he managed to clear by dint of hard labor, and became noted throughout his neighborhood as a hard working man, and one whose word was as good as his bond. He was a member of the Methodist Church, being also a local preacher in the same, and lived to be 77 years of age. Matthew Caldwell, his son, was born at Long Point, Canada, in 1814, but was reared on his father's farm in Middlesex County, where he became skilled in the art of woodcraft, but received very meagre educational advantages, what education he obtained being secured in the primitive log school-house of pioneer times. After reaching manhood he was married to Margaret J., a daughter of Gabriel and Polly (Green) Manning, by whom he became the father of two children, John Henry and Sarah J. Mrs. Caldwell died six years after her marriage, and the widower then wedded Miss Maria, a daughter of Joseph and Hannah Manning, to which union was born the following family: -Margaret A., William, George, Hannah, Joseph and Charles. Mr. Caldwell has resided on the farm on which his father settled all his life. He and family attend the Methodist Church, and he has always been an upright and honorable citizen and a true friend and neighbor.

McNames 2

In 1829 or 1830, William Allen
was shot by one Underwood in the swamp between Caradoc and Lobo.
It appears that Allen and William Vanmur stole a horse from Peter
McNames, of Brick street, and were pursued, when Underwood fired
and killed tlie horse-thief, leaving Vanmur to escape. At this time a
great number of horse and cattle thieves existed in Delaware, and in
later years some desperate characters resided there. [History of the county of Middlesex, Canada. From the earliest time to the present, and including a department devoted to the preservation of personal and private records, etc
. ]

Seth Dutton, a Lower Canadian, who was possibly of American origin, settled in the south half of lot 34. He too returned to the United States at the time of the War of 1812. Shortly after the war, however, he somehow managed to sell his location, comprising 12 acres of cleared land, to Peter McNames, who paid $200 for it." [Byron: Pioneer Days in Westminster Township, Guy St.-Denis]

"Peter McNames, possibly a brother to James McNames who settled on the north half of lot 37, was a post-war squatter. Shortly after the War of 1812 he had purchased the improvements of Seth Dutton on the south half of lot 34 in the first concession. These consisted of a barn and 12 acres of cleared land. Dutton was the original locatee who had been placed on the lot by Watson, but later returned to the United States during the war. McNames was himself a native of the United States who apparently resided in present-day Oxford County prior to their removal to the Byron area. It seems that Peter and James were possibly sons of Amos McNames who lived on lot 38 until he returned to the United States [!!??] After Peter took over Duton's improvements he constructed a house near the Commissioners' Road and continuied to clear the lot of trees up to the road, even though Dutton's location consisted only of the southern half.
Of course, on January 17, 1816, as noted Hungerford's sketch, the govenrment allowed Burtch the north part of this lot, ignorant of McNames' presence. On February 28 McNames brought the problem to the attention of the Executive Council in the form of a petition. In their report, which followed on March 5, the Council noted that it appeared as though Peter Teeple, Burtch's father-in-law, and thus likely Burthch himself, had known that McNames had a house on the lot when Burtch solicited the location. Prbably as a result, the Council recommended that the north half of the lot be confirmed to McNames and that Burtch be located on the south half, which he later surrendered. Consequently, on January 20, 1820 McNames was granted the lot where he probably continued to live for the remainder of his life. On November 30, 1853 McNames and his wife Rachel sold most of the farm to their son Silas C. McNames. The couple retained 20 acres on the east side of the lot. Later, on May 3, 1855 Silas McNames was allowed to purchase this parcel as well. On August 11 of the same year Peter McNames died.
Earlier, on April 3, 1824, McNames had sold seven-tenths of an acre situated in the north-east corner of his lot to George Jervis Goodhue. This small parcel of land, which fronted Commissioners' Road, was likely used in conjunction with Goodhue's other commercial interests on adjacent lot 33. It was there that Goodhue built his pioneer general store, which formed the nucleus for the development of commerce in the Byron area - and all Westminster for that matter.
In religion McNames was a staunch adherent to the Methodist Episcopal Church. On August 5, 1851 he sold to the Trustees of that congregation - Nathan Griffith, Ezra D. Griffith, Thomas Summers, Nelson Norton and Lucian L. McNames - one acre of ground on the Commessioners' Road to be used as a burial ground and the site of a church. The following year a church was built which first served the congregation for which it was originally intended and now serves as a place of worship for members of the Free Reform Church. There was no need to establish a cemetery as one had already existed there for some years. The History of the County of Middlesex claims that this cemetery was commecned on land belonging to both Peter McNames and James Shelden, which is a mistake. No part of the cemetery is situated on what was Shelden's location. Goodspeed also states that the cemetery was established in 1815. This could very well be true, as the earliest known burial took place only five years later, that of the infant Eliza Griffith who died June 16, 1819. The cemetery probably originated as the McNames family burial ground, a not uncommon beginning for graveyards in the days of the pineers. Over the years this cemetery, now known as the Brick street Cemetery, has provided the last resting place for many of the area's pioneers including Peter McNames himself."
