2717	Birth: 1822 Ontario, Canada Death: Jan. 9, 1896 Ontario, Canada "The Late Allan Gilmour" It becomes our duty this week to chronicle the death of one of the earliest inhabitants of this neighbourhood in the person of Mr. Allan Gilmour, who passed away last Thursday, aged 74 years. His system had been gradually wearing out for six months past '96 a general breakup. Mr. Gilmour's parents, the late Allan Gilmour and wife, came to Canada from Scotland with the early Settlers of 1821, and less than a year after their arrival here deceased was born on the lot on which he lived all his life and on which he died '96 the corner lot on the 9th Line of Ramsay adjoining Col. Gemmill's property. He was therefore one of the very first children born in this vicinity, and saw the wonderful transformations that have taken place in the last three quarters of a century. He was twice married '96 first to Miss More, sister of Mr. James More of Ramsay by whom he had a family of seven children, who survive as follows: Allan A. Gilmour of Renfrew; John A, William Joseph Gilmour, Mrs. James Townend and Mrs. W.F. Peden, Almonte; and Mrs. Wilson, Brockville. Mrs. Gilmour died many years ago. His second wife nee Miss Clarke of Packenham survives. The funeral took place on Saturday to the Eighth Line Cemetery when a large number of people turned out to pay the final tribute of respect to one who has so long been associated with the progress of this section. 1896, Friday, January 17th The Almonte Gazette, page 8	Gilmour, Allan A.

2725	Birth: Nov. 30, 1777, Scotland Death: Oct. 3, 1839 Hammond St. Lawrence County New York, USA ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ William was "a man of parts" from a distinguished family of old Scotland, where he was a manufacturer of the coveted Paisley shawls. William imprudently backed a note for an acquaintance, which reportedly ruined him both financially and socially. In an effort to assist with the rising unemployment and poverty levels, the British government encouraged emigration to Canada. Although this appeared to be a noble gesture, I've also read that Parliament was still very concerned with protecting the Canadian land against the Americans, even though the American Revolution had ended some 30 years earlier. Scots were known for their strong battle skills, so many historians theorize that this encouragement was laced with ulterior motives and strategic maneuvers on behalf of the British government to place military defense in Canadian territory. During the years of 1820 and 1821, approximately 2,900 Scots were elected as members of immigration societies to settle in Upper Canada. The families were selected by community members based on the good reputation of the patriarch and the respect of the family. A petition for the selected Paisley Townhead Society members was made to Lord Bathurst and His Majesty's Ministers for liberty and a request for emigration. The government granted each household 100 acres of land, free of monetary charge, a small amount of aid money, and tools upon arrival. The Paisley Townhead Society was just one of several emigration societies during this time. By the 1840's, colonies of America, Australia and New Zealand were joining in the recruit of able bodied men and their families. Consequently, in 1821, William Lambie (a "weaver"), his wife, 4 sons and 2 or 3 daughters (depending on the record) set sail for Canada for a fresh start with the promise of 100 acres of land at Dalhousie in Lanark, Canada. Upon arrival, many were disappointed to find the terrain to be thick with forest, extremely rocky and much of it was considered unsuitable for crops. Per Lanark Archives (a historical society): "William Lambie is recorded as settling in 1821, but the patent for the land would not have been issued until he had completed his settlement duties which included clearing several acres of land, building a house, etc. However, many of those early settlers were not able to fulfill their settlement duties or repay the government, so in 1837, their debt was forgiven and they then received the official patent. The land record would indicate that they left Dalhousie after the sale of the land, i.e., 1838." The Patent from the Crown for the 100 acres was granted to William Lambie on July 5, 1837. William subsequently sold the land in September of 1838 for 25 pounds, and then migrated across the St. Lawrence River to Hammond, New York, USA. William and two of his sons, John and James, lived the remainder of their lives in Hammond. His youngest son, Andrew, was born soon after arrival in Canada and remained there. Adam returned to Canada for at least a decade, and then by 1870, he and his brother William moved with their families to Minnesota, USA. Two of the daughters have been identified to date, however, additional information is extremely limited. The girls are listed as female children on the list submitted in the government grant as settlers in Upper Canada for the Ship Earl of Buckingham with their ages, which calculate to estimated birth years of 1803, 1805 and 1811. The eldest daughter, Margaret, married George Brown in Dalhousie. The other has been identified is Janet Lambie, born in 1804.	Lambie, William (I10765)
2726	Birth: Sep. 9, 1836 Death: Jul. 6, 1913 Morristown, July 11 .'97 D. C. Church, an old and respected citizen of Morristown and a member of the A. I. Hooker Post, passed away at his home here last Sunday morning. Another soldier has answered to the last roll call and obeyed the summons of his Commander. Dewitt Clinton Church was born at Sackets Harbor September 9, 1836. When about 12 years old the family removed to what is still known as Church's Mill near this village. Though the mill has long since ceased to exist, for many years it was used as a saw mill, shingle mill and grist mill, quite a business being carried on there. When the Civil war broke out and all over the country the call came for volunteers, Mr. Church responded and on August 5, 1862, enlisted as a private in Company B, 106th Regiment, New York Infantry, and served until the close of the war. On June 22, 1865, he received, near Washington, an honorable discharge, returning to his home here. During his three years' service in the army he passed through many experiences with which he was wont to entertain his friends in after years. He was all through the Battle of the Wilderness as well as other battles under Grant and Sheridan, was present when Sheridan rode in from Winchester on his famous ride and heard him make that remark which history has handed down, "We'll lick them before night." Mr. Church was wounded in the battle at Fairmont, Va., in 1863, and often related narrow escapes from capture. After returning home he lived on a farm near Black Lake until March, 1884, when he removed to Morristown village. He had five children, one of whom died in infancy. About six years ago his second son, Richard, residing in Riverside, Cal., met with an accident which caused his death. Mr.. Church had not been in his usual health during the past spring, but his cheerful disposition, with the dry humor so natural to him, disarmed his friends and few knew his real condition till within a couple of weeks of his death, when an acute attack of Bright's disease made him take to his bed. About this time telegrams were sent to his two sons, Wheeler and Dewitt, residing in different parts of California, who promptly started on their long; journey East, coming the quickest possible route, and reached their father while yet conscious and were with his wife and only daughter, Mrs. A. P. Wallace of this place, near him when he breathed his last. All that faithful attention and loving care could do were done for him. He was a member of the Presbyterian church and his familiar figure at its services will be missed alike by pastor and people. The funeral was conducted by his pastor, Rev. C. E. Fay, and was held from his home on Tuesday afternoon at 2 o'clock and was largely attended by friends and neighbors, relatives being present from Syracuse, Watertown, Hammond, Gouverneur, Richville, Ogdensburg and Brockville. The G. A. R. and W. E. C. attended in a body. The sympathy of the entire community is extended to the bereaved wife and family. Enlistment: Company B, New York 106th Infantry Regiment, 27 Aug 1862.

Regiment History: NEW YORK ONE HUNDRED AND SIXTH INFANTRY (Three Years) One Hundred and Sixth Infantry. Cols., Schuyler F. Judd, Edward C. James, Frederick E. Embrick, Lewis F. Barney, Andrew N. McDonald; Lieut.-Cols., Edward C. James, Fred E. Embrick, Charles Townsend, Andrew N. McDonald, Henry C. Allen, A. W. Briggs; Majs., Charles Townsend, Andrew N. McDonald, Edward M. Paine, Henry C. Allen, William P. Huxford. This was a St. Lawrence county regiment, organized at Ogdensburg, and there mustered into the U. S. service for three years Aug. 27, 1862. It left the state the following day and during its long period of service established a reputation for itself which entitles it to rank among the three hundred fighting regiments of the war. It took part in the following battles: Fairmount and Martinsburg, W. Va.; Culpeper, Mine Run, Wilderness, Spottsylvania, North Anna river, Totopotomoy, Cold Harbor, first assault on Petersburg, and the Weldon railroad, Va.; Monocacy, Md., Charlestown, W. Va., Opequan, Fisher's hill, Cedar Creek, Va.; fall of Petersburg, Sailor's creek, and was present at Wapping heights, siege of Petersburg Hatcher's run and Appomattox. After leaving the state it served first in the railroad division, 8th corps, Middle Department, and was then ordered to New creek, W. Va. The following is quoted from Col. Fox's account of the regiment: "Companies D and F were captured, April 29, 1863, at Fairmount, W. Va., where they defended a railroad bridge for several hours against a large force of Confederates. The captured men were immediately released on parole. The regiment left North mountain, June 13, 1863, and, with the other troops in that vicinity, retired before the advance of Lee's army. It joined the Army of the Potomac, July 10, 1863, while near Frederick, Md., and with other new material was organized as the 3d division (Carr's) of the 3d corps. This division was transferred in March, 1864, to the 6th corps, and its command given to Gen. Ricketts. While in the 6th corps the regiment saw hard service and almost continuous fighting. At Cold Harbor it lost 23 killed, 88 wounded, and 23 missing,-Lieut.-Col. Charles Townsend and 3 other officers being among the killed. The corps was ordered soon afterward to Maryland, where, at the battle of Monocacy, the regiment sustained another severe loss. It was actively engaged in the Shenandoah Valley, in all the battles of the corps, and then, returning to Petersburg, participated in the final campaign. At Spottsylvania the casualties in the regiment aggregated 6 killed and 32 wounded; at the Opequan, 6 killed, 45 wounded, and 3 missing; and at Cedar creek, 8 killed and 45 wounded. Gen. Ricketts was wounded at Cedar creek, after which the division was commanded by Gen. Seymour." The regiment was mustered out at Washington, D. C., June 22 and 27, 1865. During its term of service it lost 10 officers and 127 men killed and died of wounds; 4 officers and 166 men died of disease, accident, etc., a total of 307, of whom 5 men died in prison. The total enrollment was 1,367, of whom 10 per cent. were killed in action. Source: The Union Army, Vol. 2, p. 126 NEW YORK ONE HUNDRED AND SIXTH REGIMENT OF INFANTRY. St. Lawrence County Regiment.

"The Late Allan Gilmour"
It becomes our duty this week to chronicle the death of one of the earliest inhabitants of this neighbourhood in the person of Mr. Allan Gilmour, who passed away last Thursday, aged 74 years. His system had been gradually wearing out for six months past '96 a general breakup. Mr. Gilmour's parents, the late Allan Gilmour and wife, came to Canada from Scotland with the early Settlers of 1821, and less than a year after their arrival here deceased was born on the lot on which he lived all his life and on which he died '96 the corner lot on the 9th Line of Ramsay adjoining Col. Gemmill's property. He was therefore one of the very first children born in this vicinity, and saw the wonderful transformations that have taken place in the last three quarters of a century.
He was twice married '96 first to Miss More, sister of Mr. James More of Ramsay by whom he had a family of seven children, who survive as follows:
Allan A. Gilmour of Renfrew;
John A,
William
Joseph Gilmour,
Mrs. James Townend and
Mrs. W.F. Peden, Almonte; and
Mrs. Wilson, Brockville.
Mrs. Gilmour died many years ago.
His second wife nee Miss Clarke of Packenham survives. The funeral took place on Saturday to the Eighth Line Cemetery when a large number of people turned out to pay the final tribute of respect to one who has so long been associated with the progress of this section.

Arthur passed away peacefully in Perth on Thursday, March 24th, 2016 with his loving wife of 50 years, Joan (Schumann) by his side. He was the beloved father of Judy (Dan) Ferrier and Randy Ferrier and very loving and proud grandfather "Dads" of Matthew Ferrier McCaffrey. Arthur was the dear brother of Dorothy (late Jack) Tysick and Helen (Leonard) Stead. He was predeceased by his parents Mervyn and Lousie (Rudsdale) Ferrier and sister Jean Ferrier and brother Keith (Margaret) Ferrier. He will be fondly remembered by many nieces, nephews, friends and staff at Perth Community Care Centre. Arthur will be long remembered for his sense of humour, quiet nature and his lifelong passion for horses. He was a farmer all of his life, farming his third generation farm on the Scotch Line into his eighties. Arthur was a proud member of the Belgian Association. We will miss him terribly, but knowing he's now in peace in Heaven most likely riding a horse, eases our pain.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

William was "a man of parts" from a distinguished family of old Scotland, where he was a manufacturer of the coveted Paisley shawls.

William imprudently backed a note for an acquaintance, which reportedly ruined him both financially and socially.

In an effort to assist with the rising unemployment and poverty levels, the British government encouraged emigration to Canada. Although this appeared to be a noble gesture, I've also read that Parliament was still very concerned with protecting the Canadian land against the Americans, even though the American Revolution had ended some 30 years earlier. Scots were known for their strong battle skills, so many historians theorize that this encouragement was laced with ulterior motives and strategic maneuvers on behalf of the British government to place military defense in Canadian territory.

During the years of 1820 and 1821, approximately 2,900 Scots were elected as members of immigration societies to settle in Upper Canada. The families were selected by community members based on the good reputation of the patriarch and the respect of the family. A petition for the selected Paisley Townhead Society members was made to Lord Bathurst and His Majesty's Ministers for liberty and a request for emigration. The government granted each household 100 acres of land, free of monetary charge, a small amount of aid money, and tools upon arrival. The Paisley Townhead Society was just one of several emigration societies during this time. By the 1840's, colonies of America, Australia and New Zealand were joining in the recruit of able bodied men and their families.

Consequently, in 1821, William Lambie (a "weaver"), his wife, 4 sons and 2 or 3 daughters (depending on the record) set sail for Canada for a fresh start with the promise of 100 acres of land at Dalhousie in Lanark, Canada.

Upon arrival, many were disappointed to find the terrain to be thick with forest, extremely rocky and much of it was considered unsuitable for crops. Per Lanark Archives (a historical society): "William Lambie is recorded as settling in 1821, but the patent for the land would not have been issued until he had completed his settlement duties which included clearing several acres of land, building a house, etc. However, many of those early settlers were not able to fulfill their settlement duties or repay the government, so in 1837, their debt was forgiven and they then received the official patent. The land record would indicate that they left Dalhousie after the sale of the land, i.e., 1838."

The Patent from the Crown for the 100 acres was granted to William Lambie on July 5, 1837. William subsequently sold the land in September of 1838 for 25 pounds, and then migrated across the St. Lawrence River to Hammond, New York, USA.

William and two of his sons, John and James, lived the remainder of their lives in Hammond. His youngest son, Andrew, was born soon after arrival in Canada and remained there. Adam returned to Canada for at least a decade, and then by 1870, he and his brother William moved with their families to Minnesota, USA.

Two of the daughters have been identified to date, however, additional information is extremely limited. The girls are listed as female children on the list submitted in the government grant as settlers in Upper Canada for the Ship Earl of Buckingham with their ages, which calculate to estimated birth years of 1803, 1805 and 1811. The eldest daughter, Margaret, married George Brown in Dalhousie. The other has been identified is Janet Lambie, born in 1804.

Morristown, July 11 .'97 D. C. Church, an old and respected citizen of Morristown and a member of the A. I. Hooker Post, passed away at his home here last Sunday morning. Another soldier has answered to the last roll call and obeyed the summons of his Commander. Dewitt Clinton Church was born at Sackets Harbor September 9, 1836. When about 12 years old the family removed to what is still known as Church's Mill near this village. Though the mill has long since ceased to exist, for many years it was used as a saw mill, shingle mill and grist mill, quite a business being carried on there.

When the Civil war broke out and all over the country the call came for volunteers, Mr. Church responded and on August 5, 1862, enlisted as a private in Company B, 106th Regiment, New York Infantry, and served until the close of the war. On June 22, 1865, he received, near Washington, an honorable discharge, returning to his home here. During his three years' service in the army he passed through many experiences with which he was wont to entertain his friends in after years. He was all through the Battle of the Wilderness as well as other battles under Grant and Sheridan, was present when Sheridan rode in from Winchester on his famous ride and heard him make that remark which history has handed down, "We'll lick them before night." Mr. Church was wounded in the battle at Fairmont, Va., in 1863, and often related narrow escapes from capture.

After returning home he lived on a farm near Black Lake until March, 1884, when he removed to Morristown village. He had five children, one of whom died in infancy. About six years ago his second son, Richard, residing in Riverside, Cal., met with an accident which caused his death.

Mr.. Church had not been in his usual health during the past spring, but his cheerful disposition, with the dry humor so natural to him, disarmed his friends and few knew his real condition till within a couple of weeks of his death, when an acute attack of Bright's disease made him take to his bed. About this time telegrams were sent to his two sons, Wheeler and Dewitt, residing in different parts of California, who promptly started on their long; journey East, coming the quickest possible route, and reached their father while yet conscious and were with his wife and only daughter, Mrs. A. P. Wallace of this place, near him when he breathed his last. All that faithful attention and loving care could do were done for him. He was a member of the Presbyterian church and his familiar figure at its services will be missed alike by pastor and people.

The funeral was conducted by his pastor, Rev. C. E. Fay, and was held from his home on Tuesday afternoon at 2 o'clock and was largely attended by friends and neighbors, relatives being present from Syracuse, Watertown, Hammond, Gouverneur, Richville, Ogdensburg and Brockville. The G. A. R. and W. E. C. attended in a body. The sympathy of the entire community is extended to the bereaved wife and family.

Regiment History: NEW YORK ONE HUNDRED AND SIXTH INFANTRY (Three Years)
One Hundred and Sixth Infantry.

Cols., Schuyler F. Judd, Edward C. James, Frederick E. Embrick, Lewis F. Barney, Andrew N. McDonald;
Lieut.-Cols., Edward C. James, Fred E. Embrick, Charles Townsend, Andrew N. McDonald, Henry C. Allen, A. W.
Briggs; Majs., Charles Townsend, Andrew N. McDonald, Edward M. Paine, Henry C. Allen, William P. Huxford.

This was a St. Lawrence county regiment, organized at Ogdensburg, and there mustered into the U. S. service for three years Aug. 27, 1862. It left the state the following day and during its long period of service established a reputation for itself which entitles it to rank among the three hundred fighting regiments of the war.

It took part in the following battles: Fairmount and Martinsburg, W. Va.; Culpeper, Mine Run, Wilderness,
Spottsylvania, North Anna river, Totopotomoy, Cold Harbor, first assault on Petersburg, and the Weldon railroad, Va.; Monocacy, Md., Charlestown, W. Va., Opequan, Fisher's hill, Cedar Creek, Va.; fall of Petersburg, Sailor's creek, and was present at Wapping heights, siege of Petersburg Hatcher's run and Appomattox.

After leaving the state it served first in the railroad division, 8th corps, Middle Department, and was then ordered to New creek, W. Va. The following is quoted from Col. Fox's account of the regiment: "Companies D and F were captured, April 29, 1863, at Fairmount, W. Va., where they defended a railroad bridge for several hours against a large force of Confederates.

The captured men were immediately released on parole. The regiment left North mountain, June 13, 1863, and, with the other troops in that vicinity, retired before the advance of Lee's army. It joined the Army of the Potomac, July 10, 1863, while near Frederick, Md., and with other new material was organized as the 3d division (Carr's) of the 3d corps.

This division was transferred in March, 1864, to the 6th corps, and its command given to Gen. Ricketts. While in the 6th corps the regiment saw hard service and almost continuous fighting. At Cold Harbor it lost 23 killed, 88 wounded, and 23 missing,-Lieut.-Col. Charles Townsend and 3 other officers being among the killed.
The corps was ordered soon afterward to Maryland, where, at the battle of Monocacy, the regiment sustained another severe loss. It was actively engaged in the Shenandoah Valley, in all the battles of the corps, and then, returning to Petersburg, participated in the final campaign.

At Spottsylvania the casualties in the regiment aggregated 6 killed and 32 wounded; at the Opequan, 6 killed, 45 wounded, and 3 missing; and at Cedar creek, 8 killed and 45 wounded. Gen. Ricketts was wounded at Cedar creek, after which the division was commanded by Gen. Seymour."

The regiment was mustered out at Washington, D. C., June 22 and 27, 1865. During its term of service it lost 10 officers and 127 men killed and died of wounds; 4 officers and 166 men died of disease, accident, etc., a total of 307, of whom 5 men died in prison. The total enrollment was 1,367, of whom 10 per cent. were killed in action.

Notes on Family Search Tree

A note given to my grandfather Wilford Shields from his scottish cousins when he visited them in 1950.
It is written by James Connell, Isobel's great grandson. It stated "I remember getting a half penny from Great grandmother when brother John was a baby. She counted down 4 halfpennys on a chair that stood at the door in Millerstan House and said that is from your great grandmother and I will no be back to see you anymore as I a getting old. She was over 80 to go and had on a black bonnet, black dress and black shawl. They called her great grandmother Bella Blackwood.

After studying out Isabela's information and through prayer and guidance I found Isabela and her family. This took place in the winter and spring of 1995. Found the information in Salt Lake City in May at the family history library but only after alot of study here in Lethbridge at the family history library. !Doc Film # 1041065. It read May 16th William Blackwood in Barfillan Margaret Millar his spouse had a _______ baptized named __________. Apparently the minister couldn't remember the sex or name. But I know that it was Isobel because of an experience I had while studying this family line. !Doc baptism and endowments Logan Temple Record Endowment for the Dead Book F Page 380 #13909. Proxy is Elizabeth Dow Shields. In a letter written by Isobel's grandson James Connel, he said she was referred to as Bell". Name could be spelled in records as Isobel, Isabel, according to how the record keeper thought to spell it.
