  • Notes 
    • John was active in the Duncombe Revolt (a.k.a., the 1837 Rebellion).

      He lived in Sparta, ON and the home he built in the 1820s stands today as an example of pioneer architecture and construction and is a valued relic. It is adjacent to the Friends Meeting House and it suggests that John probably owned the property upon which it was built.
