Obituary of Andrew Moodie (1811-1905)

For nearly one hundred years Andrew Moodie was a resident of North Burgess Township, and his death on Thursday, May 11th - no account of which was unavoidably crowded out of last week's Courier - removes perhaps the oldest living resident of the township. Mr. Moodie was of sturdy Scotch ancestry and always enjoyed the best of health during his long lease of life until within a few months back when the inevitable seemed to be stealing over him. He was of Scotch descent and came to this country with his parents when a mere babe in his mother's arms. His father's name was Thomas Moodie and he settled on the farm now occupied by Mr. Alex. Moodie. The subject of this obituary took to the occupation of farming and founded the homestead now owned by his son James.

Early in life deceased was married to the widow of the late William Ferrier - a pioneer resident also - who was killed by a tree falling on him while traveling through the wilderness with a yoke of oxen and a quantity of potash en route to the market town Brockville. A large family blessed this union, of which four survive today: Thomas, town; Andrew, 9th line of Burgess; James, on the homestead, and Mrs. Anderson, town. Mrs. Arthur Warren [Mrs Arthur Warner, Christina Ferrier], of Calabogie, is a step daughter. Two brothers also survive: John on the 9th line of Burgess, and Alex. on the Scotch Line. His father lived to be 96 years of age and his two brothers are 80 and 74 respectively. The funeral took place on Saturday, May 13th, to Elmwood Cemetery and was very large in point of numbers.

Location:
During their stay there, late in the autumn of 1815, a party of explorers from this colony visited the present site of the town of Perth to "spy out the land" for their kindred, before they could commit themselves to a position from which, once taken, it would be difficult to recede. One of these was Mr. Thomas Cuddie, grandfather of Mrs. George Templeton, of Calgary, Alberta, and he it was who cut down the first tree in the proposed settlement. He selected a farm on the Scotch line, and died in Perth not many years ago. The party camped the first night of their arrival in the locality on the right or west bank of the River Tay, very near the south end of the old stone bridge that stood so long on Gore street. They made a bush camp almost in front of the spot where Spalding & Stewart's distillery stands, cutting down an immense elm tree for the purpose. The stump of this tree remained as a sort of landmark for many years. This camp became the temporary headquarters of the prospectors till they decided upon the locality about them as the best procurable in the district, when they returned to their comrades at Brockville, all of whom came on and settled in the townships of Bathurst, North Burgess, North Elmsley, a few in Drummond, and some within the present limits of the town of Perth, though the greater number located in the immediate neighborhood on what is known as "The Scotch Line," forming the boundary between Bathurst and North Burgess townships.

The date of the first land taken up was April 17th, 1816, and among the pioneer settlers were John Halliday, lot A; Alexander McFarlane and Jas. McDonald, Lot 1; William McGilvery and Alexander Cameron, lot 2; John Brash and William Rutherford, lot 3; John Miller and Robert Gardner, lot 4; James Drysdale and John Allan, lot 5; John Ferrier and Robert Barber, lot 8, all in the 10th concession of North Burgess. Sergt. Thomas Brooke settled on the 9th concession.
